Protection has secured our mobile algorithms and now testing guidelines need improvement
The best features DoveRunner Mobile Application Security offers include its simple integration, which is basically a pipeline, making it a plug-and-play type of approach that automatically takes care of all the heavy work. Regarding how the automatic protection works, I appreciate the simplicity of this particular SDK, as I just need to integrate it using Xcode directly and use CocoaPods to install it in applications, which simplifies the security layers along with all the signing and submission of the application to the App Store. DoveRunner Mobile Application Security has positively impacted my organization so far by alleviating a constant fear that our proprietary algorithms or shaders might be leaked, which could affect our application's revenue, and we are optimistic about achieving secure integration after launching in production.

Security scanning has protected our pipelines but currently needs clearer dashboards and controls
We used additional third-party solutions, but we replaced them with GitHub Advanced Security, even though I do not have a very good opinion about GitHub Advanced Security. Even though it is an inline product, I'm not seeing user-friendly things in GitHub Advanced Security. Dependent bots and the secret detection are good compared to others. However, code scanning is not finding very good results based on pipeline where it will scan and do code scanning. While build, before building and deploying the code, we want to block or do an advanced model, but it is not supporting. During deployment, code scanning is not good. It is a little complicated. It is not a straightforward method we can complete. We need expertise to get the full benefit, and troubleshooting sometimes requires going through that. The security overview dashboard is not really clear. It's not showing centralized information; each repo is showing, but if you compare it with competitors, it is not that great. Mainly in the centralized dashboard, enterprise level needs to improve. A centralized way where we can get that overall view is needed, and we want that code scanning and blocking deployments based on security. There are AI improvements, but however, it is not so easy to configure. It is multiple windows we need to go through and make changes or configure that. A few things we need to enable going into settings, and a few things we can find out in security. One product where security means the security dashboard should cover everything, but it is going here and there in many places.
