# What are the highest rated application shielding platforms for mobile teams that need to reduce fraud surface without slowing app performance?

<p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">Hey G2 community, I've been researching the <a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/categories/application-shielding">application shielding</a> space for mobile teams that need to reduce fraud surface without slowing app performance, and the ratings picture here is worth looking at carefully. A few products with strong scores have thin review counts, which matters when you're evaluating how much signal is actually behind the number.</p><ol>

</ol><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">Which of these has your team actually tested under real traffic conditions? And did the performance impact end up being smaller or larger than you expected going into the evaluation?</p>

&lt;p&gt;Performance claims always sound good until real traffic hits. I’ve seen cases where the difference only shows up under peak load, not in staging. If you came across any real-world testing insights, what actually moved the needle more, fraud reduction or performance impact?&lt;/p&gt;
