Problem
Organizations face a surge in mobile‑first cyber attacks, where phishing, malware, and zero‑day exploits target smartphones, tablets, and mobile applications. Traditional endpoint security solutions are designed for desktops and cannot provide the on‑device, real‑time protection required for modern mobile ecosystems. This leaves enterprises and developers vulnerable to data loss, credential theft, and application tampering.
Solution
Zimperium delivers an AI‑driven security platform that protects both mobile devices and the applications running on them. Its Mobile Threat Defense (MTD) component continuously monitors device behavior, leveraging on‑device machine‑learning models to detect and block phishing, malware, and previously unknown threats without relying on cloud connectivity. The Mobile Application Protection Suite (MAPS) secures the software supply chain through automated code scanning (zScan), cryptographic key safeguarding (zKeybox), runtime shielding (zDefend), and binary hardening (zShield). Threat intelligence is updated in real time and can be integrated with existing security information and event management (SIEM) or mobile device management (MDM) tools. The solution is offered as a subscription service that scales across BYOD programs, corporate‑issued devices, and industry‑specific deployments such as automotive, finance, and government.
Target Audience
The primary customers are enterprise security teams, IT departments, and mobile app development groups in sectors such as finance, automotive, aviation, government, and retail that need to protect employee devices and in‑house applications. Zimperium also serves managed security service providers (MSSPs) that deliver mobile security as a service to their clients.
