Root / Jailbreak Detection Bypass

Root and jailbreak detection is an app asking "is the device under me honest?" — and it answers with a battery of probes where any single hit means "compromised". A lone on-device boolean falls to one runtime hook, which is exactly why it is not a control on its own. This walks how detection works, why it is brittle, how an assessor validates its resilience on an app they own, and the layered hardening (native, integrity, server attestation) that changes the game.
