SAN FRANCISCO, May 30, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Arxan Technologies, the trusted provider of application protection solutions, announced today the release of Arxan for Android. This new solution features the industry's first protection technology for apps developed using Kotlin, the rapidly growing development language supported by Google for Android app development. Arxan's protection for Android apps written in Kotlin or Java shields against reverse engineering and tampering to protect businesses from brand damage, financial loss, intellectual property theft and government penalties.
"Arxan for Android is unique in that it is the first application protection solution to offer full support for Kotlin while directly manipulating the DEX files to provide the greatest security and control," said Rusty Carter, vice president of product management, Arxan. "This capability minimizes impact on development resources from the first build on through every follow-on release. As the application threat landscape continues to intensify, we are continuing to expand our capabilities to help protect customer applications developed for Android, including those developed using Kotlin."
Arxan for Android lets developers focus on the job at hand, developing great apps without worrying about securing code from attackers during the development process. Arxan's app protection provides a comprehensive set of guards, enabling a high-level of security for applications through active protections, static analysis defense and advanced obfuscations. The solution also features:
Arxan will also be at the upcoming InfoSecurity Europe conference, June 5-7 in London. Visit Booth B160 to learn more about Arxan for Android and Arxan's other comprehensive application protection solutions.
