“Organizations should consider Kryptowire when they are looking for a MAST vendor that has a major emphasis on testing mobile apps for alignment and compliance with government and international industry standards, particularly when organizations are in key security- and privacy-conscious vertical industries such as banking, finance, healthcare, and government,” stated Denise Lund, Research Director, Enterprise Mobility, IDC .

Kryptowire’s MAST software automatically tests against internationally recognized security and privacy standards, including NIAP, NIST, OWASP, GDPR, and other industry-specific standards. Kryptowire software performs automated testing of app binaries and every library included in the mobile app, including fully automated dynamic analysis, which uses proprietary forced-path execution to examine every branch of code. Kryptowire provides automated BAST that inspects behaviors of the mobile app UI and supports the custom test scenarios. Kryptowire MAST software can be deployed onsite or hosted in the cloud and integrates with every major MDM to test every app, on every employee mobile device across the enterprise. Kryptowire can be used at any stage of the SDLC for both developers and IT professionals to perform scans for security risks device assets.

The IDC MarketScape reports coincide with the release of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) study titled, “Evaluating Mobile App Vetting Integration with Enterprise Mobility Management in the Enterprise.” Kryptowire encourages organizations that want to comply with the highest security standards to follow the same technically rigorous DHS methodology and IDC market research when evaluating MAST solutions.

“Kryptowire has always focused on R&D and our core technology to meet our customer’s stringent security requirements,” said Kryptowire CEO Angelos Stavrou. “We are proud to be recognized again by yet another independent third party for our mobile app security analysis technical capabilities. Stay tuned for bigger and better things from Kryptowire.”
