  • Mobile Secure

CNN Worldwide is the most honored brand in cable news, reaching more individuals on television and online than any other cable news organization in the United States. CNN Digital is the #1 online news destination, with more unique visitors than any other news source.

CNN has millions of active users and protecting their data is an important foundational principle for the company. CNN users trust them with their most important thoughts and ideas, so the CNN's engineering team’s primary charter is to protect data. That starts with a secure product.

CNN has built multiple apps that run on a variety of mobile platforms including Android, iOS, & AppleTV. Their flagship application is updated frequently and therefore needs a security scanning solution that can match the pace of each release. Ideally, the would like a scanning solution that can not only find traditional security defects but also identify mobile-specific privacy and security issues that developers may not be aware they need to address.

Mobile Secure transformed our approach to mobile app security. Deployment was seamless, policy enforcement became automated, and we significantly reduced our risk exposure while delivering a better user experience.
