Verimatrix announced it has been identified as a Sample Vendor in the application shielding category of the Gartner Hype Cycle for Application Security 2022 report.

Gartner describes the business benefits of application shielding, with a focus on mobile apps, as, “Application shielding protects enterprise software and applications from cloning, fraud, IP theft and other forms of abuse.

In certain industries, such as financial services and online retail, it can also be used to improve the user experience. By hardening the application, an online retailer can minimize the restrictions and additional forms of verification requests (such as step-up authentication) made to its customers.”
