Zimperium has introduced the Mobile App Response Agent, a tool designed to enhance the speed at which security teams can address fraud and security threats within mobile applications.

This new agent forms a part of Zimperium's Mobile App Protection Suite (MAPS) and is specifically tailored to help Security Operation Centre (SOC) and Fraud teams mitigate risks by significantly reducing investigation and response times from hours or days to just minutes.

Addressing social engineering campaigns

In today's digital landscape, mobile applications represent a prominent and vulnerable attack surface within enterprises, cybercriminals to prioritise mobile-centric attack strategies. According to the Zimperium 2026 Mobile Banking Heist Report, there was a 67% increase in transactions driven by mobile banking malware in 2025. SOC and Fraud teams are now contending with a surge in sophisticated mobile attacks, many of which leverage AI and social engineering techniques.

The Mobile App Response Agent simplifies the task for security and fraud analysts by allowing them to initiate automated investigations with a single action. This functionality quickly assesses multiple mobile app alerts on a device to determine the presence of genuine incidents or fraud, subsequently providing a comprehensive attack narrative alongside recommended response actions.

Expert analysis for all analysts

Chris Cinnamo, Deputy CTO at Zimperium, remarked, "For the first time, every SOC and Fraud analyst can investigate mobile app threats with the depth of a mobile security specialist. Investigation times drop from hours to minutes, making the agent a true force multiplier for these teams."

  • Incident Discovery: Validates incidents with a confidence score.
  • Event Correlation: Consolidates related mobile signals into a unified, contextual view of incidents.
  • Attack Context: Provides plain language threat narratives and risk evaluations.
  • Remediation Guidance: Offers clear actions for incident response.

The Mobile App Response Agent is now available to all current and new MAPS customers, marking a step forward in mobile security management.
