Project Summary

Postindustria developed an iOS and Android integration (SDK) for an ad-quality platform to inspect and block malicious or sensitive display ads. The vendor implemented a JavaScript-invoked core experience, integrated with Google’s ad server and extended support to other ad servers, and delivered thorough documentation. The client praised the team’s technical expertise, sprint-based management via Jira and Slack, and prompt delivery of documentation ahead of schedule.

Key Challenges

Fill a gap in the product lineup by enabling the service to work inside mobile apps
Lack of in-house app expertise to implement the mobile integration

Project Deliverables

Integration for iOS and Android
SDK/integration that inspects display ads and flags threats
Documentation and implementation guides

Project Solution

Postindustria received a detailed description of the client’s web-based ad detection methods and implemented a mobile integration that invokes the client’s JavaScript-based core experience within iOS and Android apps. They built the core foundation of an SDK that inspects display ads as they are called into the app, flags problematic ads based on the client’s threat domain, and provides hooks for app engineers to handle flagged ads. The integration works with Google’s ads server and is being extended to support additional ad servers; the team of three delivered the foundation and supporting documentation and performed testing.

Project Outcome

Solution effectively blocks ads and integrates lightly into apps
Documentation delivered three weeks early, enabling client readiness and faster rollout
High-quality, well-documented deliverable that the client is confident they can troubleshoot
