Guardsquare Recognized as the Best Mobile Security Solution by the 2023 Tech Ascension Awards

Leuven, Belgium – October 27, 2023 – Guardsquare, the mobile application security provider, today announced that AppSweep has been recognized as the Best Mobile Security Solution as part of the 2023 Tech Ascension Awards. AppSweep, the company’s mobile app security testing (MAST) product, is mobile-specific and developer-friendly.

AppSweep quickly scans iOS and Android applications to identify risks and provides developers with actionable insights to fix vulnerabilities in the code and dependencies. Intuitive to use, AppSweep integrates seamlessly with DevOps pipelines and popular tools such as Bitrise, GitHub, and Jenkins empowering developers to automate security seamlessly into their workflows.

Using the MAST tool, developers gain a better understanding of their mobile app's security posture and can easily identify areas where improvements are needed to align with security standards such as OWASP MASVS. And, because the tool is free, it puts mobile app security well within reach for all organizations.

With the addition earlier this year of iOS application scanning and interactive analysis, AppSweep has transformed mobile application security testing.
