// OVERVIEW

What is Mobile App Security Testing?

Mobile application security testing evaluates the security posture of iOS and Android applications using both static and dynamic analysis techniques. Our certified assessors reverse-engineer your application binaries, instrument the runtime with Frida, and probe backend APIs to uncover vulnerabilities that put your users and their data at risk.

We test against the OWASP Mobile Application Security Verification Standard (MASVS) and follow the comprehensive OWASP Mobile Security Testing Guide (MSTG). Our testing covers the full attack surface: the application binary, client-side storage, inter-process communication, network traffic, and all backend APIs exposed to the mobile client.

From insecure data storage and certificate pinning bypass to runtime manipulation and deep-link hijacking, our methodology leaves no stone unturned. Each finding is validated on real devices — not just emulators — to ensure real-world exploitability is accurately assessed.

Our Methodology

Combining SAST and DAST with expert manual analysis — aligned to the OWASP MASVS and MSTG for complete mobile coverage.

01
Static Analysis
Decompile APK/IPA, find hardcoded secrets & weak crypto.
02
Dynamic Analysis
Frida/Objection hooks, jailbreak & root detection bypass.
03
Network Interception
MITM all app traffic, test SSL pinning, inspect tokens.
04
Data Storage Audit
SharedPreferences, SQLite, Keychain & external storage review.
05
IPC & Platform
Exported components, deep links, WebView & IPC misuse.
06
Backend API Testing
Full API security test on all backend endpoints.
// SCOPE

What We Test

Full attack surface coverage across binary, storage, network, platform APIs, and backend — for both iOS and Android platforms.

Storage & Cryptography

  • Insecure SharedPreferences / NSUserDefaults
  • Weak or broken encryption algorithms
  • Hardcoded credentials and API keys
  • Keystore / Keychain misuse
  • Unencrypted backup vulnerabilities

Network Security

  • Certificate pinning bypass
  • SSL/TLS validation failures
  • Man-in-the-Middle susceptibility
  • HTTP cleartext communication
  • Insecure custom protocol implementations

Authentication & Authorization

  • Token handling and storage
  • Biometric authentication bypass
  • OAuth 2.0 / PKCE implementation flaws
  • IDOR in backend API endpoints
  • Broken session management

Platform & Code Security

  • Root / jailbreak detection bypass
  • Anti-tampering and repackaging
  • Runtime manipulation (Frida hooking)
  • Exported IPC component attacks
  • WebView JavaScript bridge exploits

Is Your Mobile App
Exposing Your Users?

Every day your app is live without a security assessment is a day a threat actor could be silently extracting user credentials and sensitive data.
