NowSecure Platform vs Zimperium zScan

NowSecure Platform gives organizations visibility into security, privacy, AI, compliance, and software supply-chain risks in mobile apps they build, use, or manage. It analyzes compiled Android and iOS binaries and runs apps on physical devices to observe runtime behavior such as network activity, storage, permissions, and data movement. Findings can include decompiled code, data-flow traces, runtime captures, and the technique used to produce them. The platform checks static flags against runtime behavior, raising corroborated findings and lowering the priority of those that runtime tests cannot reproduce. It produces a CycloneDX mobile software bill of materials based on components observed in the shipped binary, and maps findings to OWASP MASVS controls, MASWE weaknesses, and MASTG testing techniques. NowSecure describes the platform as cloud-deployed and lists CI/CD, issue-tracking, security-tool, and Slack integrations, along with REST and GraphQL APIs. Its integrations page reports more than 200 integrations. Pricing is available on request, with no public price stated.

Zimperium zScan scans mobile applications for security, privacy, protection, and compliance gaps. It uses static, dynamic, and interactive analysis, with the product page saying results are available in 15–30 minutes. Teams can submit IPA, APK, or AAB files, or an App Store URL; native and hybrid app stacks are supported. Findings may include descriptions, code snippets, affected locations, and recommendations, with reports available in a dashboard and as PDF or machine-readable JSON. An AI Insights panel offers contextual guidance and configuration fixes. zScan examines third-party components, SDKs, and SBOMs for supply chain risks and unexpected AI usage. It also checks whether anti-tampering, obfuscation, runtime protection, encryption, and SSL pinning are effectively implemented. Zimperium describes CI/CD workflows with automated testing and security gates; GitHub Actions can scan merges and pull requests and surface findings in GitHub Advanced Security code scanning alerts. The cloud service is described as requiring no infrastructure setup or tuning. Pricing is on request, and the free 30-day trial offers unlimited mobile app scans, with account access provided after approval.
