#security measure

GCash strengthens its app security by blocking access for devices that have undergone modifications. This proactive measure includes blocking access for jailbroken and rooted devices. Note that their new security measure DOES NOT automatically block a GCash account if it is accessed on a modified device. By bypassing the security measures put in place by the operating system, jailbroken and rooted devices may be more vulnerable to security threats and malicious software. GCash's decision to block access for jailbroken, rooted, and modified devices is a security measure aimed at protecting user data and ensuring the integrity of their app. GCash has been continuously rolling out safety and security measures to prevent unsecured devices from accessing the app. The latest security deployment is part of ongoing enhancements to ensure the safest and most secure experience for our customers. GCash did not elaborate as to what additional security measures were put in place but we'll look into this and update this story once we do.
