Build38 provides robust protection from API scraping attacks. Our solution’s powerful defense against these advanced threats centers around our active app hardening features. These include individualizing each app instance through X.509 certificates, injecting unique cryptographic keys, and maintaining a secure link with all app instances continuously.
API scraping, also known as data scraping, is a hacking method where an attacker programmatically extracts data from a target’s Application Programming Interface (API) without proper authorization or consent.
This method often involves randomly sending requests to the API endpoints with the goal of progressively reverse engineering the back-end, and ultimately retrieving valuable data, such as user data or financial records, in return.
We protect your mobile apps from API scraping largely thanks to our exclusive Active App Hardening capabilities.
Active app hardening is accomplished with three distinct methods:
This not only enhances the app’s security but also bolsters the overall security of the entire mobile technology stack, including its back-end APIs.
The robust app individualization ensures that only legitimate app instances are authorized to access back-end APIs, effectively thwarting API scraping attacks. We achieve this in two ways:
Businesses worldwide trust Build38 with their mobile app security. Don’t just take our word for it—listen to what our customers have to say.
