iOS jailbreak detection toolkit now available
Summary: Trail of Bits released iVerify, an App Store-compatible iOS framework that checks for known jailbreaks such as Pangu and for anomalies that may indicate unknown or custom jailbreaks, returning either a simple pass/fail result or per-check results. The library detects jailbreaks on iOS 10 and 11, and the company says its team will update it as new iOS versions and checks are developed.
Bottom line: Jailbreaks disable mandatory code signing and application sandboxing, and jailbreaks themselves have included backdoors in the past, so a pass/fail result on a device is the difference between trusting your app's runtime and not knowing what else is running alongside it.
