Mobile Application Penetration Testing

28 - Mobile Security

Mobile Application
Penetration Testing

Your mobile app is part of your infrastructure running on a device you do not control. We pull iOS and Android apps apart: how they store data, how they talk to your servers, and how the APIs behind them hold up under attack.

  • iOS and Android testing, native and hybrid apps
  • Static and dynamic analysis of the compiled application
  • Insecure data storage, logging, and hardcoded secrets review
  • Backend and API testing behind the app, against the OWASP API Top 10
  • Authentication, session, and certificate pinning bypass testing
  • Reverse engineering and runtime tampering on jailbroken or rooted devices
  • Findings mapped to the OWASP Mobile Top 10 with CVSS scoring
  • Remediation guidance and an optional re-test included

Common Questions

What do you need from us to scope a mobile app test?

The platforms, whether the app is native or hybrid, a test build or store link, API documentation if it exists, and test accounts. From that you get a fixed-scope quote.

Do you test the APIs behind the app too?

Yes - the backend is usually where the worst findings live. APIs are tested against the OWASP API Top 10 as part of every mobile engagement, alongside OWASP MASVS coverage of the app itself.

Do you need our source code?

No - black-box and grey-box testing work without it. If you can share source, white-box testing finds more in the same time. All three are quoted options.
