Runtime application self-protection
App hardening Runtime protection that hardens your app.
DeepID’s runtime protection guards your mobile app while it runs. It detects code injection, hooking frameworks, debuggers and tampering before they can compromise the app.
Why runtime protection matters.
Static protection isn’t enough. Code obfuscation and certificate pinning protect your app at rest, but attackers work at runtime: injecting code, hooking functions and changing memory. Runtime protection detects these attacks as they happen, not after.
Hooking frameworks get round certificate pinning
Dynamic instrumentation lets attackers intercept API calls, steal tokens and change how the app behaves, without touching the binary.
Hidden root gives attackers full control
Tools such as Magisk Hide mask root from basic checks. DeepID reads several signals together to find root that is being hidden.
Emulators and app cloners scale abuse
App cloners and device farms automate fraud. DeepID detects virtual environments and cloned copies of your app in the session.
Repackaged apps strip your protections
Attackers modify and redistribute your APK with malware added or protections removed. DeepID checks the app’s integrity at every launch.
Runtime protection in four layers.
Read on the phone while your app runs, and turned into the rules your policy runs.
Changes to your app binary, resources and native libraries, detected while the app runs, so a repackaged or patched copy is recognised.
Dynamic instrumentation, memory manipulation and runtime patching. DeepID detects Frida, Xposed, Magisk and other tampering frameworks in the session.
Device intelligenceDebugging sessions, emulators and virtual machines, so attackers can’t reverse-engineer your app’s logic or step round its checks.
Your code obfuscation, string encryption and control-flow protection confirmed intact at runtime, with de-obfuscation attempts and class-dump tools detected.
One SDK, every module.
App hardening runs in the same SDK as everything else DeepID decides.
Device intelligence
A fingerprint that survives resets, and tampering read every session.
SIM and device binding
The account bound to the customer’s own phone and SIM.
Scam signals
The call and the shared screen, while money moves.
One decision, with reasons
Allow to block, sent to the app and the FRM.
Questions about app hardening.
What is runtime application self-protection (RASP)?
Security that runs inside your app and detects attacks as they happen. Unlike perimeter defences such as firewalls and WAFs, it works in the app itself, so it sees code injection, hooking, debugging and tampering.
How is it different from app shielding?
App shielding adds static protection when the app is built: obfuscation, anti-debugging flags and integrity checks. Runtime protection adds checks while the app runs and detects active attacks. DeepID does both: static hardening, confirmed at runtime.
Which frameworks and tools does DeepID detect?
Frida, Xposed, Magisk (including MagiskHide and Zygisk), Substrate, LSPosed, EdXposed, GameGuardian, Lucky Patcher, app cloners, screen-mirroring tools, accessibility-service abuse, overlay attacks and custom hooking frameworks. Detection is updated continuously.
Does runtime protection slow the app down?
Checks take under 50 ms, and the SDK is under 500 KB (DeepID, 2026). Detection runs asynchronously, off the main thread, with minimal battery impact.
Can attackers bypass it?
No single check is impossible to bypass, which is why DeepID layers them. Getting past one, such as root detection, still leaves hooking detection, integrity checks and behaviour, which makes a full bypass hard and expensive.
