IXGuard is a powerful iOS obfuscation and application shielding tool designed to protect iOS apps and SDKs from security threats. Developed by Guardsquare, the tool employs a multilayered approach to security by offering code hardening and runtime application self-protection (RASP). Here’s an overview of its key features:
Overview:
- Obfuscation and app protection for iOS applications
- Multiple layers of code hardening, protecting against reverse engineering and tampering.
- RASP checks to prevent tampering at runtime.
- Polymorphic protection ensures that each build has unique security configurations.
Key Features:
- Defends against static analysis with iOS obfuscation techniques, targeting classes, fields, arithmetic instructions, and more.
- Counter dynamic analysis by automatically injecting RASP checks to prevent tampering.
- Mutually reinforcing security layers combine defenses against static and dynamic analysis.
- Provides a Protection Report to validate and assess the applied protections, recommending further enhancements
