GBHackers publishes 2026 RASP and mobile AppSec roundups

GBHackers released back-to-back 2026 guides comparing 10 RASP tools and 12 mobile AppSec products, both without lab testing.

GBHackers published two consecutive 2026 editorial buyer's guides, not a single product ranking. On 2026-10-15 it compared 10 RASP and runtime-protection options, naming Contrast Protect as the leading dedicated RASP and Waratek for JVM virtual patching, and framing Datadog, Dynatrace, and Fastly Signal Sciences as observability or edge alternatives, alongside Imperva, OpenText Fortify, Jscrambler, HCL AppScan, and Veracode. On 2026-10-16 it compared 12 mobile application security products across testing, shielding, virtualization, and runtime defense, mapped to OWASP MASVS, naming NowSecure and Data Theorem for automated testing, Guardsquare for obfuscation, and Corellium for virtual iOS and Android devices, with Zimperium, Promon, Appdome, Oversecured, ImmuniWeb, Veracode, Checkmarx, and Black Duck also listed. Both pieces state that scores are research-based rather than lab-tested and that pricing is mostly quote-based; the RASP guide also refers to usage pricing. The sources do not disagree on facts; they address different categories, and only Veracode appears in both lists.

• On 2026-10-15, GBHackers published a 2026 buyer's comparison of 10 runtime application self-protection (RASP) and runtime-protection products.
• That RASP roundup names Contrast Protect as the leading dedicated RASP and Waratek for JVM virtual patching, with Datadog, Dynatrace, and Fastly Signal Sciences framed as observability or edge alternatives.
• Other RASP entries listed are Imperva, OpenText Fortify, Jscrambler, HCL AppScan, and Veracode.
• On 2026-10-16, GBHackers published a separate 2026 editorial roundup of 12 mobile application security products for testing, shielding, device virtualization, and runtime defense, mapped to OWASP MASVS.
• The mobile roundup names NowSecure and Data Theorem for automated testing, Guardsquare for obfuscation, and Corellium for virtual iOS and Android devices.
• Other mobile entries are Zimperium, Promon, Appdome, Oversecured, ImmuniWeb, Veracode, Checkmarx, and Black Duck; Guardsquare, Promon, and Appdome are described as covering shielding and runtime defense.
• Both articles say rankings are editorial or research-based with no lab testing, and that pricing is mostly quote-based (the RASP piece also mentions usage pricing).
• Veracode is the only vendor named in both roundups; the reports do not contradict each other because they cover different product categories.
