Enhancing Security and Stability of Mobile app with anti-loss and theft function
DigitalMara helped refine the backend part of the mobile app, addressing key features like real-time proximity alerts and isolated data storage. We enhanced security, stability, and performance enabling our client to introduce the app to a wide audience.

About the client
Social security startup from the US
Our client is a U.S.-based social security startup specializing in patented anti-loss and anti-theft safety technology. While they already had an existing iOS app, it required significant enhancements to meet their goals and improve the user experience.
Challenge
Our client required an overhaul of its backend to meet high-security standards and provide stable, reliable performance.

Approach
Our dedicated team of a Python Developer and Project Manager worked closely with the client’s iOS developer to:
- Assess and update code: we reviewed the inherited codebase and replaced outdated components to ensure stability.
- Refine functionality: we fixed the bugs and enhanced the restructuring of the environment maintainability.
- Develop key endpoints: we stabilized endpoints for user data, images, and admin operations.
- Introduce new features: permissions management, image upload, and logging were implemented for seamless functionality.
Data isolation and security focus
We implemented independent on-device storage, which allowed us to reduce hacking risks by isolating the app and its data. Proximity alerts provide immediate notifications to users if their item moves out of range. All data remains private and stored on the device, with automatic deletion when the app is removed.
Results
With updates made by DigitalMara, our client could overcome critical project challenges and prepare for market entry with a secure, reliable app. Key outcomes included:
- Enhanced security. Privacy-first architecture isolated data locally, achieving security levels that virtually eliminate hacking risks.
- Improved stability and functionality. The app now provides real-time alerts and a seamless user experience, with all major bugs fixed and performance stabilized across all scenarios.
- Accelerated market readiness: Our rapid issue resolution reduced the client’s go-live timeline, enabling faster access to market opportunities.
- User-friendly controls: The new permissions management system and the simplified image upload provide a smooth, user-centric interface.
Through technical expertise and efficient execution, DigitalMara supported the client’s successful readiness for a high-security launch.
