Ensure your mobile banking app is PSD2-compliant
Payment Securities Directive 2 (PSD2) is a European Legislation that came into effect in late 2019 that requires financial services in the EU to contribute to a more integrated, secure, and efficient payments ecosystem. With increasing numbers of consumers adopting mobile banking and more malicious actors targeting banking apps, there is a need to improve security measures for mobile financial services.
The security goals for PSD2 require financial services to:
- Implement monitoring mechanisms in their apps to detect signs of malware
- Provide security measures in their app to mitigate risk for the user device
- Ensure consumers have a secure environment to execute their financial transactions
The security requirements of PSD2 create the need for stronger security in mobile banking applications. Mobile banking apps can leverage Lookout’s App Defense SDK to provide proactive protection for customers.

Lookout App Defense delivers
Mobile app security for your customers
Mobile app security and compliance are quickly rising as one of the top priorities of CISOs as app-based attacks and fraud continue to rise. Lookout App Defense detects various types of cyber threats that can lead to account takeovers such as credential theft, data leakage, and fraud on the mobile app. The Lookout Security Cloud has analyzed over 70M mobile apps globally, delivering mobile app protection to counter various threat vectors such as:
- Trojanized versions of legitimate apps, or “fake apps”, that direct credentials and data to an attacker
- Malware overlaying a fake login screen (screen overlay attack) on the actual app with intent to steal your customers’ credentials
- Malware that allows access to sensitive and personal data on the device to an attacker
- Compromised devices that allow an attacker to turn off the security features of the device
- Protection from zero-day threats without updating your mobile app
In addition to the detection of these threats, Lookout App Defense allows your apps to be “self-protecting” by enabling them to take remedial actions depending on the severity of the threat, such as blocking account access on jailbroken devices. With the ability to detect and remediate app-based threats, Lookout App Defense provides a critical layer of protection for your users and your brand.
The fastest threat detection & time-to-protection
Lookout App Defense provides comprehensive in-app protection with a security architecture that combines the best of cloud and on-device detection and is specifically optimized for the mobile environment. This approach delivers the most secure threat detection, the fastest time-to-protection, and has a lower impact on device performance compared to approaches that depend solely on device-based analysis. Your customers' data is secured by the most advanced technology, while they receive the best possible user experience, including:
- Machine Learning-based threat classifiers that analyze up to 90,000 new apps a day, and find thousands of mobile threats per day
- Instant deployment of new threat coverage from the cloud without requiring an app update
- Minimal device performance and battery impact, evidenced by the highest app store ratings in the industry
- A mature solution that has been deployed to over 170M devices worldwide
