Appdome uses AI and a modular architecture to bring efficiency and scale to the mobile anti-bot defense lifecycle. On one platform, mobile businesses build, monitor, and respond with 400+ mobile app security, anti-fraud, anti-ATO and anti-bot defense plugins in Android & iOS apps on demand. Each mobile anti-bot defense plugin automatically adjusts to the code of the app and uses a dynamic defense model that analyzes behavioral anomalies, identifies threats, and filters out false positives, all without a server or external attestation. If you want to eliminate big Epics and manual work, handoffs, and resolutions in your mobile anti-bot defense journey, Appdome is the right choice for you!
Mobile Applications are filled with APIs for critical actions and workflows like sign up, login, purchase, payment, balance inquiry, password functions and more. Mobile applications connect to these APIs to fucntion and provide services to users. At the same time, attackers can access these APIs using eiher brute force attacks, like credential stuffing, or via modified, compromised, controlled or weaponized mobile applications. Appdome's MobileBOT™ defense solution allows mobile brands to stop brute force attacks and create defense policies from 400+ detection methods, purpose-built for the API that needs defending.
Appdome MobileBOT™ Defense enables mobile brands to rapidly defend against brute force credential stuffing, DDoS and similar attacks generated by bot farms, bot scripts, and via fake, virtual, or emulated devices, and weaponized mobile apps. To do so, Mobile BOT™ Defense can rate limit application connection requests and provide an immutable application fingerprint for the real client mobile app. This fingerprint is passed as part of the TLS handshake and allows any industry-standard Web Application Firewall (WAF) to distinguish the legitimate app from fake or tampered apps and malicious connection requests, stopping bot attacks easily.
As part of every connection request that a mobile application makes to a protected API, Host, or URL, MobileBOT™ defense can also include customizable threat data in the payload sent to the WAF infrastructure. This "API Session Risk" data is configurable by API and can include data from up to 400+ mobile attack vectors in Android & iOS apps. This threat data allows Network Security teams to use WAF rules to design powerful and unique bot defense policies for each API and evaluate session risk per API connection request, blocking connection requests that contain unwanted risks.
Different APIs need different protected to prevent Account Takeover (ATO) attacks. For example, at sign up, a mobile brand might care about automated gestures, keystrokes and clicks because this signals fake users. But, at login, the mobile brand might care about deepfakes, spyware, social engineering, AI-generated scams, and other attacks. Appdome MobileBOT™ defense allows mobile brands and enterprises to protect APIs, Hosts, and URLs from the threats that matter most and use industry-standard Web Application Firewall infrastructure to enforce each policy.
MobileBOT™ Defense is built to work seamlessly with any industry-standard Web Application Firewall, giving mobile brands and enterprises several advantages, including a rapid and easy path to anti-bot protection, freedom of choice over their WAF provider, and significant cost savings compared to replacing a WAF provider just to get bot protection. In addition, Appdome's MobileBOT Defense provides greater ease of implementation through its no-code, no-SDK, no-server-based delivery model, and more granularity of defense and intelligence than WAF-provided anti-bot protection options.
MobileBOT™ Defense is purpose-built for Android & iOS applications, environments, and networking protocols. As such, it does not rely on web cookies or JWT tokens to fingerprint real or legitimate applications or connection requests. Cookies and JWTs are often sent in clear text in the anti-bot payload and, even if secured in transit, are stored locally in the clear by the mobile app or OS. Appdome avoids this vulnerability by using secure client certificates to fingerprint applications and its own IDAnchor™ device fingerprinting to ensure only real apps connect to your APIs.
Appdome's MobileBOT™ Defense solution is the only mobile anti-bot solution that's comes fully protected inside the protected mobile app. SDK-based anti-bot solutions can be tampered, removed, spoofed, bypassed or disabled because there is no binding between the SDK and the mobile app. Appdome binds its mobile anti-bot solution to the mobile app, preventing it from being tampered with, removed or bypassed. Appdome's anti-bot solution is also fully obfuscated in the mobile application, to prevent attackers from discovering the logic and methods used to deliver anti-bot protection.

Appdome designed MobileBOT™ defense to be secure from the ground up. That means that all anti-bot values, payloads, and data are protected end-to-end in every implementation automatically by the Appdome Platform. This includes encrypting any data at rest, data in memory, and data sent in transit to the Web Application Firewall, and providing active MiTM Attack Prevention for every connection to a protected API, Host or URL. MobileBOT™ Defense also includes optional Certificate Pinning, or Pin to Host, ensuring the protected mobile applications connect to trusted infrastructures only.
MobileBOT Defense offers Safe and At-Risk Session headers, providing dozens of meta-data intelligence parameters like Device State, Connection Risk, GEO_Spoofing detection, and much more. This data, including timestamps, device details, and GEO-Source, integrates with any WAF for real-time monitoring and blocking bot activity. Appdome Bot Source and BotID further enhance threat mapping to specific users and sessions, enabling precise rules and automated enforcement during key app lifecycle events like login, password reset, transactions, etc with full visibility to defend against all forms of API abuse and attacks.
Inside a highly demanding DevOps lifecycle, getting MobileBot defense right is extremely hard. Mobile apps are updated 24x-36x a year, the Android & iOS OS changes frequently, and threats evolve constantly. Appdome uses AI to eliminate this complexity, implement and keep each anti-bot defense up to date, and support the mobile engineering team's freedom and release cycles. Full support for the Mobile DevOps tool chain and best practices is a standard part of using Appdome.
With Appdome, you can meet anti-bot protection requirements without sacrificing your engineering freedom, development choices, other features, or the user experience.
