+## [4.5.0] - 2026-03-03
+
+- Android SDK version: 18.0.4
+- iOS SDK version: 6.14.1
+
+### React Native
+
+#### Changed
+
+- Updated the internal handling of ExternalIdResult on Android (for `storeExternalId()` method)
+
+### Android
+
+#### Added
+
+- Added support for `KernelSU` to the existing root detection capabilities
+- Added support for `HMA` to the existing root detection capabilities
+- Added new malware detection capabilities
+- Added `onAutomationDetected()` callback to `ThreatDetected` interface
+  - We are introducing a new capability, detecting whether the device is being automated using tools like Appium
+- Added value restrictions to `externalId`
+  - Method `storeExternalId()` now returns `ExternalIdResult`, which indicates `Success` or `Error` when `externalId` violates restrictions
+
+#### Fixed
+
+- Fixed exception handling for the KeyStore `getEntry` operation
+- Fixed issue in `ScreenProtector` concerning the `onScreenRecordingDetected` invocations
+- Merged internal shared libraries into a single one, reducing the final APK size
+- Fixed bug related to key storing in keystore type detection (hw-backed keystore check)
+- Fixed manifest queries merge
+
+#### Changed
+
+- Removed unused library `tmlib`
+- Refactoring of signature verification code
+- Updated compile and target API to 36
+- Improved root detection capabilities
+- Detection of wireless ADB added to ADB detections
+
+### iOS
+
+#### Added
+
+- Added time spoofing detection, detecting an inaccurate device clock. It is a new threat `timeSpoofing`.
+
+#### Changed
+
+- Improved jailbreak detection methods.
