DORA Third‑Party Risk for Mobile AppSec: SDK Governance and Audit‑Ready Evidence Packs
A deep dive into DORA-focused third‑party risk for mobile AppSec, showing why embedded SDKs and runtime providers demand release‑scoped governance because vulnerabilities persist across multiple app versions in the wild and provider outages directly break critical journeys. It outlines an audit‑ready approach built on per‑release SDK inventories and diffs, approval/ban rules, patch SLAs with time‑boxed exceptions, and evidence packs that stay version‑scoped, indexed, and quickly retrievable.

Announcing Ostorlab for Bitrise: Mobile security scans in your CI
Ostorlab now integrates with Bitrise to run automated mobile application security scans inside CI workflows. Using a Bitrise Secret plus a simple Script step, teams can install the Ostorlab CLI and run ostorlab ci-scan run against the same build artifacts produced by the pipeline (e.g., Android APK, Android AAB, or iOS IPA). The integration helps shift security left by shortening feedback loops and catching vulnerabilities earlier, with options to tailor scans via profiles (fast, full, agentic deep scan) and optional inputs like test credentials, SBOM, and UI prompts.
