Permanent Disclosure Ledger

The discipline, demonstrated

On behalf of our research partners, we investigate publicly distributed Android and iOS apps: we decompile them, follow their code and data flows, and trace every connection to the servers it reaches. Hundreds of agents work through each app and join the technical evidence into one picture, which our specialists then review and verify.

387+
Android/iOS apps audited
Every app is decompiled at source-code level, not just scanned from outside.
1.04M+
Smali classes read
The full shipped code we have actually read, not an estimate.
262+
Critical findings recorded
Confirmed findings copied to regulators, not theoretical risks.
970+
Weak points found
Third-party tracking we have provably found inside the binary.
567+
Endpoints investigated
Real servers and countries where data actually flows.
132+
SDK instances mapped
Reusable libraries correlated across the entire corpus.

Canva's session-recording tool can capture the actual content of private pitch decks you create inside it and send that content to a US service. When reported, Canva said it couldn't reproduce the issue, then closed the case disagreeing without giving specifics, redirecting to its bug-bounty program instead of engaging the finding.
Sentry Session Replay on a design tool captures pitch decks and confidential documents, sent to Sentry US. Canva called the static finding unreproducible, then closed the ticket disagreeing without specifics, pointing to its bug-bounty program three times over. Three yes/no questions on child advertising-ID handling went unanswered.
