App Vetting at Scale
The NowSecure Mobile App Risk Tracker indicates that 85% of apps listed on app stores contain security flaws, 70% have the potential to leak personal data, and most embed hundreds of third-party libraries and SDKs that introduce hidden supply chain, privacy, and compliance risks. Unvetted apps can expose sensitive data, communicate with high-risk infrastructure, and violate regulatory obligations — often without any visible indication. Gain access to the most comprehensive source of mobile app risk information with NowSecure Mobile App Risk Intelligence (MARI).

Frequently Asked Questions
What is NowSecure Mobile App Risk Intelligence?
NowSecure Mobile App Risk Intelligence is an evidence-based decision engine for vetting third-party mobile apps. It helps teams understand what an app actually does so they can make faster, more defensible approval or blocking decisions.
How is MARI different from a simple app risk score?
MARI does not stop at a score. It shows the findings, evidence, and risk drivers behind the rating, including AI usage, network destinations, permissions, trackers, and embedded third-party code.
Can MARI identify hidden AI in mobile apps?
Yes. MARI detects embedded AI and LLM-related components and helps teams assess whether those capabilities create policy, privacy, compliance, or governance concerns.
What kinds of risks can teams review with MARI?
Teams can review AI and governance risks, software supply chain risk, sensitive data exposure, insecure permissions, privacy concerns, networking behavior, and communications with higher-risk jurisdictions.
Who is MARI built for?
MARI is designed for IT, endpoint, security, compliance, and risk teams responsible for approving and managing third-party mobile apps.
Can MARI integrate with enterprise workflows?
Yes. MARI provides API access to detailed findings, evidence sets, permissions, tracking domains, and risk breakdowns so organizations can integrate mobile app intelligence into internal systems and governance workflows.
