Confidentiality, integrity and authenticity in mobile online banking KOBIL enables digital identity for secure transactions via appWorms, 21 March 2019. KOBIL Systems GmbH offers with "mID Security Suite" a directive-compliant security solution to ensure the protection of banks, insurance companies, health insurance companies and their customers in mobile applications such as online banking. With this announcement the Worms based company is improving security gaps in digital online banking transactions and ensures a secure app with safe log-in, confidentiality and integrity. The protection of the digital identity is validated upon the authentication of the user, the device identification and the authenticity check of the mobile application, whether smartphone or tablet. The customer does not need any additional hardware when using the app for transactions. The mID security suite is seamlessly integrated into the installed hardware and software environment and works independently with the operating system. Accomplished is this via the communication channel (see chart) which realizes the end-to-end encrypted authentication between smartphone (SDK), the SSMS (Smart Security Management Server) to the backend of the customer. The Software Development Kit (SDK) can be embedded on any mobile device as well as in any mobile app. Manipulation and creation of fake apps are not possible. With the primary activation, the app is linked to the personal mobile device and registers itself via the communication channel on the SSMS. This server is the backend part of the security solution and is typically located in the customer's data centre. For example, it controls whether the app is actually running on the originally registered device, whether it has been copied or whether the app's code has been modified. This guarantees a secure connection and that the encrypted data coming from the app is also authentic. Only when all test routines have been successfully completed the SSMS releases the access utilising the customer app channel on the virtual smartcard in the registered app. From this moment on, the communication between customer and provider is encrypted, binding and secure. KOBIL offers this security application to finance, insurance and health insurance companies. Ismet Koyun, CEO of KOBIL emphasises: "Any bank which does not secure his transaction service app on customer's smartphones will lose the consumers trust. Only in this way can the financial industry proactively tackle the challenges of the future and remain competitive.” His solution also complies with all government regulations regarding data protection and IT security. ((Caption)) The app strategy: The mID security suite protects the user side (smartphone), employs the communication channel and the SSMS whether the mobile app is registered on the original PC, tablet or smartphone and rules the affirmative code. Only after this authentication and the correct user PIN the connection between smartphone and bank is established throughout the customer app channel. About KOBIL Systems GmbH:Today, KOBIL solutions are the standard for digital identity and highly secure data technology.

Worms, Germany, 17 June 2018 – KOBIL Systems, a leading provider of digital identity and application security solutions, today announced that it has been identified as a Representative Vendor in the Gartner “Market Guide for Application Shielding” report. KOBIL Systems was named in the application shielding vendor’s category among 14 other providers.According to Gartner, “the (application shielding) market experienced considerable growth with the proliferation of mobile apps, which move a portion of the programming logic, processing, sensitive operations and data from the application back end to the app that runs on the mobile device.” With mobile, IoT and modern web applications, some of the software logic, processing, sensitive operations and data from the application backend migrates to the app running on the mobile device. For the app itself, especially the consumer-facing one, the mobile device is an untrusted and foreign environment. Nevertheless, today only five percent of companies protect mobile, IoT and JavaScript-critical applications. Gartner predicts, “by 2020, 30{d05ed2fcafd13be8f8206dca969478b02082b437556910654bb4db0d96a45814} of enterprises will use application shielding to protect at least one of their mobile, IoT and JavaScript critical applications, up from 5{d05ed2fcafd13be8f8206dca969478b02082b437556910654bb4db0d96a45814} today,“ and “by 2021, more than half of enterprises that use application shielding will do so via a single, multichannel application protection platform.“KOBIL’s mIDentity Application Security Technology (mAST) provides an end-to-end encrypted security platform to protect both native and WebView-based apps. With this technology, KOBIL uses the integrated Dual-7-Layers-of-Security to combine security, trust and communication elements.  KOBIL's Trusted App works with the KOBIL Smart Security Management Server which acts as a Trust Center and thus guarantees a secure execution environment before, during and after using the app. This not only protects the app itself, but also the identity of the person, sensitive data and all communication via the second encrypted KOBIL Digitanium™ Channel. The market-proven Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) solution can be easily and quickly integrated as a Software Development Kit (SDK) into any mobile development environment and used immediately.With the extension of Trusted App, both native and hybrid (WebView) apps can be protected in a binding and reliable manner using KOBIL's Trusted WebView. This technology is the only one in the world that meets the requirements for strong customer authentication and authorization of transactions on a single app and device. Both mobile SDK solutions fully comply with the General Data Protection Regulation, the new Payment Services Directive PSD2 and the eIDAS regulation."We believe that everything on earth will have the capacity to communicate with each other. Secure, binding and reliable identities and communication are crucial for this.”, says Ismet Koyun, founder and CEO of KOBIL Systems. “For this, our holistic approach for mobile and desktop experiences offers application shielding as well as strong customer authentication, transaction authorization, trusted onboarding and digital signatures for any digital process. We believe being named by Gartner as a representative vendor reinforces our solution's value to our customers and business partners."The Gartner Market Guide for Application Shielding can be downloaded by Gartner subscribers at: https://www.gartner.com/doc/3747622/market-guide-application-shieldingThis press release refers on “Gartner Market Guide for Application Shielding” by Dionisio Zumerle, Manjunath Bhat, 27 June 2018.Gartner does not endorse any vendor, product or service depicted in its research publications, and does not advise technology users to select only those vendors with the highest ratings or other designation.

LONDON, UK., 18th January 2018 – KOBIL Systems GmbH, a leading IT security company headquartered in Germany, today presents a security solution that complies with the new Payment Services Directive 2 (PSD2) in time for the launch of the new directive. This will help banks and financial institutions to meet and successfully implement the strict requirements of the updated EU directive. The Dual 7 Layers of Security approach developed by KOBIL – which is the only one of its kind in the world to date – plays a central role, allowing for stricter customer authentication without restricting the end user experience. The foundation of the approach is KOBIL’s mIDentity Application Security Technology (mAST).“PSD2 will completely change the way a bank’s customers pay. The industry cannot ignore these facts. Just as Industry 4.0 has had a major impact on the industrial sector, these EU regulations will revolutionise the entire financial sector,” explains Ismet Koyun, founder and CEO of KOBIL Systems GmbH. “As a technology partner with over 30 years of experience and expertise in the IT security sector, the Dual 7 Layers of Security approach is our response to the hurdles and opportunities presented by the updated EU guidelines. We would like to communicate this answer together with our partners throughout Europe. At its core, PSD2 enables banks to create exciting new business models. KOBIL is committed to implementing innovations within this framework safely and in compliance with PSD2.”PSD2 will in particular fundamentally change security requirements, as since the 13th January two-factor authentication is now a prerequisite for electronic payment transactions in the European payments area. This is intended to ensure greater customer security. Before PSD2, banking systems depended on direct interaction with the customer, whereby banks themselves have all the information they need to determine whether a transaction is counterfeit. The provision of a secure environment and the development of financial services – while ensuring consumer protection against fraud and accountability – will therefore be a major challenge for banks.Strong customer authentication, together with secure communication, makes it possible to master this challenge. KOBIL’s Dual 7 Layers of Security solution takes a holistic approach and offers a robust, agile and compliant solution. This secures the identity of end users at seven different levels and makes any kind of fraud attempt almost impossible. KOBIL’s mIDentity Application Security Technology is used here. With mAST, KOBIL offers an end-to-end security platform for strong customer authentication and authorisation using trusted identities for continuous, binding and reliable communication between banks, third parties and their customers. KOBIL’s time-tested and market-proven Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) solution uses advanced shielding, protection, prevention, detection and reporting mechanisms.Even before the login process, KOBIL starts securing the device and application. For example, KOBIL safely checks the device on which the dedicated application runs before the application is started, and binds the application to this device, making it personalised for the user. In addition, the solutions look beyond the technical aspects of security and assess the situation taking into account the real-time context: time, place and situation. KOBIL offers Titanium security with the Digitanium Channel with Dual 7 Layers of Security, providing dual communication technology to provide a secure transport route for sensitive data between user and bank. (For further information on “Dual 7 Layers of Security” please click here.)There is no doubt that PSD2 presents banks with a number of challenges. Therefore, banks and other financial service providers must carefully weigh up their strategic options. This can lead to the development of different orientations – banks can choose to be PSD2 compliant with minimal effort. You can also use PSD2 as a tool to invest in agility and customer loyalty. “Open banking in particular has many advantages,” says Ismet Koyun, explaining the opportunities offered by PSD2: “But it is those particularly forward-looking banks that are building their own ecosystems and are setting up their own businesses.”About KOBIL KOBIL solutions are today a standard for digital identity and highly secure data technology.
