Threat-Events™ is Appdome’s in-app framework designed to empower mobile developers with real-time event data and control when Android and iOS attacks occur. It enables mobile brands to create on-brand experiences that build trust and loyalty even when mobile attacks are certain, ensuring that bad experiences are not. The framework allows developers to consume rich mobile attack intelligence, meta-data, and AI-powered risk profiles from Appdome’s 300+ mobile app security, anti-fraud, anti-malware, anti-bot, anti-cheat, and geo compliance defenses directly within their Android and iOS applications. This system requires no SDK or external servers, simplifying integration. Threat-Events provides a full range of evaluation and enforcement options, giving mobile brands and developers the power to choose when and how to evaluate mobile app, user, or transaction risk and enforce each defense. It can be utilized for various purposes including teaching, monetizing, offers, and Enhanced Due Diligence. Implementations of Threat-Events can be monitored via Appdome's ThreatScope™ Mobile XDR service, allowing brands to verify engineering work, enrich data for fraud analysts, confirm enforcement, and continuously improve business impact. It enables mobile developers to customize threat handling in their mobile apps, providing threat and risk data at the device, user, and transaction level for workflows like Know Your Customer (KYC) and Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD), or to verify user identity and transaction integrity. The platform offers multiple enforcement options to create new workflows and keep users engaged within the app during attacks.
