iOS Anti-Tampering Detected

iOS Anti-Tampering Detected

Risk: secure

Description

Anti-tampering signals were detected in the iOS application package. This indicates the app performs integrity checks or related runtime validation intended to identify unauthorized modifications to the binary or bundled content.

This is a resilience control rather than a guarantee of security. Anti-tampering can raise the cost of repackaging and patching attacks, but it should still be combined with obfuscation, anti-debugging, jailbreak detection, and strong server-side validation for sensitive decisions.
