Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for storing a plurality of stored fingerprints, wherein each of the stored fingerprints is associated with a respective software environment and a respective mobile device; receiving from a first mobile device a first fingerprint of a first software environment in the first mobile device; determining whether the stored fingerprints include less than a threshold amount of fingerprints identical to the first fingerprint; based on a determination that the stored fingerprints include less than the threshold amount of fingerprints identical to the first fingerprint, determining that the first software environment is a compromised software environment; and performing a corrective measure.
