LogDog is a mobile Intrusion Detection System (IDS) app. It monitors various online accounts and scans multiple indicators that are associated with unauthorized access by taking into account a user’s routine across various devices and services.[1] The app is currently available for Android and iOS.

Overview

LogDog was developed by LogDog Information Security Ltd., which was founded in 2013 by Uri Brison, CEO of the Tel-Aviv, Israel-based company. Brison was head of user-experience at modu,[2] and co-founded Smartype, an innovative keyboard.[2]

The company raised $3.5 million in venture funding led by BRM Group,[1][3] from TheTime VC, FirstTime Ventures, Maxfield Capital and Curious Minds Investments.[4]

LogDog was initially released for Android in 2014, followed by iOS version in 2016.[5][6]

Features

LogDog protects users’ private online information against hacking by actively monitoring accounts for signs of suspicious activity.[7][8] The services LogDog protects include: Gmail, Yahoo, Twitter, Facebook, Dropbox and Evernote.[1] If a hacker attempts to gain access to any of the connected accounts, the user receives an alert that there is unauthorized access.[9] It also provides an Inbox Detective service that scans the user's email account for any potential threats and assists in eliminating them.[10]

LogDog has Android and iOS versions. Once a user installs the app on a supported device, it invites the user to add protection for each of the supported account types.[11] The login data remains on the user own device, is never transmitted and vanishes when the user uninstall the app.[12] LogDog's Privacy policy[13] states that it does not collect User's passwords and does not store them on servers. It also supports two-factor authentication for Gmail and Facebook.[14]

Techinasia magazine listed LogDog as one of the Israeli startups to follow closely in 2016.[15]
