Leading cloud-based, end-to-end mobile app protection solution AppSealing, by INKA Entworks, announced it has been identified as a Sample Vendor in the Gartner Hype Cycle for Application Security, 2022. It is listed under the application shielding category. The recognition follows a string of recent customer victories, product breakthroughs, and industry accolades.
The research covers a variety of solutions, including API threat prevention, policy-as-code, SaaS security posture management, SBOM, and API security testing. It highlights how “adoption of app shielding is experiencing growth for consumer-facing mobile in industry verticals such as gaming apps, financial services, online retail, healthcare, insurance and automotive” and examines two major families of app shielding functionality, hardening and anti-tampering. Additionally, it offers users’ recommendations, drivers, and obstructions.
By emphasizing the importance of application security, Gartner observed, “Security and risk management leaders need to adopt a composable view of application security. They should focus on orchestrating multiple application security innovations to serve as a coherent defense, rather than relying on a set of stand-alone products.”
