As businesses increasingly expand into mobile-first applications and Web3 platforms, their digital attack surface is growing. In the first half of 2025, Android mobile malware threats surged by 29%, while Web3 security incidents led to cryptocurrency losses exceeding $2.3 billion in 2024—a 32% increase from the previous year. Additionally, 80% of organizations reported cloud security incidents, with one-third resulting in data breaches. These challenges are exacerbated by fragmented security solutions that fail to manage risk across the entire lifecycle of modern digital infrastructures.

“Security solutions can no longer function in isolation,” said Subho Halder, CEO of Appknox. “Our partnership with CredShields underscores our commitment to transforming security from a compliance requirement into a business enabler, allowing organizations to innovate confidently across mobile, cloud, and Web3 ecosystems.”

“Last year, blockchain-related hacks resulted in losses exceeding $2 billion, with more than half stemming from smart contract vulnerabilities,” said Shashank In, Founder and CEO of CredShields. “Through our partnership with Appknox, we are combining AI-driven automation with expert services to proactively detect and mitigate risks in emerging digital environments. This approach allows businesses to treat security not just as a reactive necessity but as a strategic advantage.”
