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.

Every app is decompiled at source-code level, not just scanned from outside.

Substantive
Critical
Erste Group ships a noticeably weaker connection-security setup to its Austrian banking customers than to its Czech customers, even though it is meant to be the same banking app, a gap that is hard to explain as anything other than inconsistent rollout. The app also runs a biometric identity check and uploads detailed device data to a fraud-detection vendor.
Innovatrics biometric SDK (Art. 9) + ThreatFabric device data upload. Austrian NSC gap vs Czech build. Substantive reply from Balazs Gyorgy, security@erstegroup.com
