Globally, cybercriminals have moved to a mobile-first attack strategy, weaponizing AI coupled with highly sophisticated social engineering campaigns.
Consequently, mobile apps and devices represent the most vulnerable attack surface in most organizations resulting in AI-powered threats to be primarily directed at mobile users.
This mobile-first attack environment requires dedicated active defense for mobile apps and devices, enabling immediate AI-driven detection and response within the app and on the device.
Mobile devices and apps hold the data and access needed to breach even highly secure organizations.
Most organizations leave mobile devices under protected, overestimating MDM/UEM security.
Mobile users are highly vulnerable to social engineering, enabling credential theft and malware delivery.
Zimperium has been shipping AI in mobile security since 2013. That year, we launched z9, our on-device machine learning engine built to detect device, phishing, network and malware threats in real time. No signatures. No cloud dependency. No connectivity needed. More than 10 years later, that same on-device AI foundation powers our threat intelligence across 500M+ devices and 1,000+ apps. It's what makes our agentic mobile security operations possible today.
Zimperium uses AI within zScan Automated Security Testing to help developers fix mobile app vulnerabilities faster. An AI assistant provides context-aware recommendations, code snippets, and follow-up answers grounded in how the app actually behaves, not generic advice. The result is faster remediation and fewer exploitable vulnerabilities shipped in every release.
App Vetting surfaces Shadow AI on employee devices, whether AI is embedded within an app or the app itself is AI-driven. Security teams can see which AI apps are in use, what data they access, and the risk each introduces. They can then use the policy engine to mark these apps as non-compliant and restrict or remove enterprise access to reduce risk before it becomes an incident.
Zimperium also embeds AI directly into the admin experience. Our zConsole includes a built-in chatbot that answers any question security teams have about using or configuring the product, including integrations with MDM, SIEM, and DevOps tools. Instead of digging through documentation or filing a support ticket, admins get instant, context-aware guidance inside the console where they already work. The result is faster deployment, faster troubleshooting, and less friction in operationalizing mobile security across the enterprise stack.
Zimperium is empowering security teams with AI as a force multiplier to harden the mobile attack surface. Our agentic AI approach empowers our customers with unique, highly specialized, mobile-specific expertise that is missing in many security organizations.
In today’s mobile-first attack environment, organizations must deploy AI analysis and defense to combat AI-based attacks.
