Technical questions for an app protection RFP

Protection investments, verification plans and supplier evaluation.

Comparison and selection1 min readEditorial methods

State application needs before feature checkboxes. Supplier responses should include measurable scope and evidence.

Evaluation approach

Ask separately about platforms, frameworks, native code, distribution, data use, diagnostics and outages.

Application example

Instead of asking only whether iOS is supported, ask how the actual Swift and extension scope will be protected and tested.

Limits and considerations

A generic yes may not apply to every version or license tier.

Which version does the answer describe?

Assess the offered license and SDK, not a general presentation. Unclear platform or framework support must not be scored as verified.

Checks and decisions

  • Make scope concrete
  • Request evidence
  • Ask about license differences
