Abstract
Embodiments of the presently disclosed invention provide a method and system for providing self-protecting code. In particular, embodiments provide security modules that may be embedded in a plurality of apps installed on one or more devices. In one embodiment, a central app security system is provided that facilitates the deployment and management of the formation of apps embedded with the security module. With the help of the embedded security modules, the plurality of apps, which may be referred hereinafter as a 'secured formation' of apps, perform automated and dynamic scans of other apps within the same formation to ensure the integrity of each app is maintained. Each app in the secured formation may also detect viruses, malware, spyware, and other malicious software contained in the secured formation and perform curative operations in response. In this manner, the apps in any given secured formation collectively ensure that sensitive user information is protected.
