XTD: The Trusted Leader in Mobile App Security

XTD deploys an arsenal of defensive techniques including code obfuscation, anti-tamper technology, and environmental checks to shield mobile apps, detect threats, and respond to them effectively.

Quick view

XTD Enterprise Suite is a comprehensive solution that delivers AI-infused, multi-layered security for iOS and Android, combining advanced techniques like code obfuscation, anti-tampering, and environmental checks to defend against reverse engineering and sophisticated cyber threats. Designed for enterprises, it provides continuous monitoring of apps running on managed or unmanaged devices, delivering real-time, actionable threat intelligence and automated incident response via an intuitive dashboard or SIEM integration, all while supporting seamless CI/CD workflows. With flexible deployment options (SaaS or on-prem), XTD enables organizations to secure digital assets quickly, minimize operational burden, ensure regulatory compliance, and stay protected against evolving threats.

XTD assists security teams with:

Threat detection

One of the primary challenges for CISOs and SOC teams is identifying potential threats before they can cause harm. XTD is a mobile cybersecurity solution that continuously monitors your extended endpoints and detects suspicious activity or anomalies that could indicate a potential attack.

Incident response

CISOs and SOC often lack the capability to respond quickly and effectively to mobile security incidents. Cybersecurity tools like EDR and MTD may help, but can fail to detect millions of consumer device blind spots. XTD provides real-time alerts and detailed information about the nature and scope of all mobile threats, so you can remediate the incident.

Data protection

Ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of sensitive mobile app data is another significant challenge for CISOs and SOC teams. XTD helps by monitoring and controlling data access, identifying data exfiltration attempts, and providing obfuscation, encryption and other protective measures.

Compliance

There is no compromise in meeting regulatory compliance requirements, especially for CISOs and SOC teams. Cybersecurity tools like EDR and MTD can help, but these solutions have a blind spot – mobile app and consumer device threats. By providing audit trails, detailed logs, and other documentation that demonstrates compliance with regulations such as HIPAA, PCI DSS, and GDPR – XTD extends your compliance coverage.

Resource management

Many organizations face challenges in staffing and resourcing their cybersecurity programs adequately. XTD is a cybersecurity tool that can automate routine tasks, reducing your workload. We also use our AI/ML technology to help identify threat patterns – providing zero day early warnings. Additionally, we offer an optional monitoring and response service, using our data scientists to augment your internal teams.

XTD Protect

Shield your android & iOS apps with XTD Protect.

Mobile apps can provide an entry point to your wider IT systems. If they’re not properly protected, they can leave the business open to cyber attacks. As more and more companies embrace mobile experiences, attacks on the channel are increasing.

Security blind spots

Managing mobile cybersecurity can get lost in organizational gaps. Mobile app development teams typically operate separately from core enterprise technology and security teams, which can create blind spots in a firm's enterprise security.

Defensive techniques within the app

Hackers often analyze app code to gain an understanding of its logic, which makes app-centric organizations more vulnerable to hacker probing and cyber attacks. CISOs should look for enterprise solutions that utilize a range of defensive techniques to ensure optimum levels of protection.

In-App Techniques included:
• Code obfuscation
• Environmental checks
• Jailbroken and rooted device detection
• Tamper prevention
• Unmanaged device telemetry

App shielding and RASP

App shielding (also known as app protection) is at the core of XTD. Shielding an app involves hardening the app to make it difficult to reverse engineer and tamper with its behavior. RASP focuses on protecting the app while it's executing, and XTD Protect looks for threats against the app.

XTD Protect tools include:
• Code encryption
• Control flow obfuscation
• Runtime environmental checks
• Binary integrity checks
• Zero-day flags/blockers

App telemetry is critical

Without telemetry, businesses are blind to what’s happening in their app ecosystem, and it’s impossible to prevent, predict, or detect threats happening within your app or from the devices connecting to your app without having telemetry deployed on a device. Agentless Telemetry provides an exceptional low-code solution for anyone publishing Android or iOS apps — meaning you can protect and see what’s happening on any unmanaged consumer device that deploys XTD Protect.

Telemetry Benefits:
• Low-code: Minimal development effort required
• Agentless: No agent required on devices
• Instant monitoring of protected apps
• Instant monitoring of connected devices

CI/CD – Built for speed and efficiency

XTD is a strong supporter of Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD), a process that empowers mobile teams to test and release code at a faster pace, leading to increased productivity and agility. By automating the integration, security injection, testing, delivery, and deployment of code, XTD's CI/CD friendliness ensures that your internal software development process is seamless, streamlined and secure.

Benefits of CI/CD integrations:
• Reduce risk
• Increase security
• Eliminate roadblocks
• Develop more efficiently
• Speed up release cycles

XTD Detection & Response

XTD Detection & Response is an AI-infused cybersecurity solution purpose-built to continuously monitor, detect, and respond to threats targeting mobile apps and connected devices—empowering organizations with proactive defense and deep visibility. By leveraging machine learning, behavior analytics, and real-time telemetry, XTD filters through millions of signals to identify the few that truly matter—drastically reducing false positives and enabling rapid, precise intervention.

Whether through automated mitigation or manual response, XTD accelerates the time from threat detection to resolution, often in minutes. It also complements traditional EDR tools by extending coverage to unmanaged devices owned by consumers and addressing blind spots often overlooked by current XDR solutions. Its intuitive dashboard translates billions of data points into actionable insights with dynamic visualizations that spotlight suspicious events, threat instances, high-risk apps, and behavior-based risk levels. With advanced filtering, seamless SIEM integrations—including with Splunk, IBM QRadar, and Elastic—and the ability to adapt over time, XTD Detection & Response transforms threat noise into clarity, giving security teams the intelligence and control needed to stay ahead of today’s evolving cyber risks.

A quick walkthrough of XTD

When you want to know more, it’s possible to drill down to all the details and investigate further or even react. This is how XTD provides the full circle of detection and response — extending your threat defenses to the farthest attack surface.
