Signature stats

The Signature stats widget gives you visibility into the validity of Adjust SDK Signature across your installs. It helps monitor implementation quality, detect anomalies, and support enforcement decisions.

Use it to:

✅ Validate integration & assess enforcement readiness: Confirm that signature tracking is working as expected before enforcing signature's validation — without risking legitimate traffic.

🔍 Detect anomalies or spoofing patterns: Spot irregularities in invalid or missing signatures that could indicate emulated installs or traffic manipulation.

🔄 Audit secret usage: Identify outdated or obsolete Secret IDs that may need deactivation to improve security posture.

🌍 Segment by dimensions: Break down signature stats by channel, network, campaign name, country, SDK Signature version, and OS name to localize issues or uncover suspicious trends.

Set up the Signature stats widget

By default, this widget displays a time-series chart of valid and invalid installs, segmented by Signature Version + OS name, over Days.

Each line in the chart represents the installs metric per Secret ID and its validity status:
- Solid line = installs with valid signatures
- Dotted line = installs with invalid signatures
Each Secret ID is defined by a combination of:
- Signature version (or category if the version is not available)
- OS name

How Secret IDs are displayed in the legend and filters

Signature V3	Secret ID reflects a specific combination of the signature library version and OS (e.g. 3.47.0 android (#3010)).
Pre Sig V3	Secret ID exists but does not identify the exact SDK version (e.g. Pre Sig V3 android (#3)).
No signature	Always uses placeholder Secret ID #0 (e.g. No Signature android (#0)).
Unknown signature	Always uses placeholder Secret ID #-1 (e.g. Unknown android (#-1)).
