Case Study: MV strengthens mobile healthcare app security with Approov

MV plugs an API security hole with Approov and sees 10x RoI

MV, a provider of digital healthcare solutions, faced a significant security challenge when a pentest revealed their Medic MV app's API was vulnerable to being impersonated by scripts. This risked exposing sensitive Protected Health Information (PHI) and threatened compliance with new data privacy regulations, preventing the app's full deployment.

The vendor Approov provided its Mobile App Protection to ensure only genuine app instances could access the API. This solution successfully plugged the security hole, allowing the app to be deployed securely. MV calculates that implementing Approov provided a 10x return on investment compared to the cost of lost sales or an internal development, and they now plan to add it to all their healthcare apps.
