Organizations need to vet the mobile apps their employees use for several reasons:
The NHS provides an apps library (The Library) of trusted digital tools, improving health and well-being outcomes by supporting people who take an active role in managing their own mental and physical health. See how Quokka was leveraged to scan and evaluate the security and privacy risks of the mobile apps in The Library, saving the NHS considerable time and money.
Maintain an inventory of company-approved apps vetted by Q-Vet for allowed deployment to employees. Likewise, block any apps that do not meet corporate security standards. Keep track of the naughty list.
Ensure the security of the applications that you deploy for business use before they are added to your container, then protect your whole device by vetting the rest of the apps that could introduce vulnerabilities into your network. We like to be complete.
Vet your mobile apps to make sure they are in compliance with well-known industry standards such as NIAP, GDPR, HIPAA and your organization’s security standards. Sometimes, standards can be good for you.
According to the Automating National Information Assurance Partnership (NIAP) Requirements Testing for Mobile Apps, a study by the Department of Homeland Security Science and Technology, “Mobile app vetting solutions, exemplified by Kryptowire’s (now Quokka) products, can be one component among several that can work together to improve the security of the mobile app ecosystem and supply chain.”
