Penetration Testing

Mobile Application
Security Assessment

Mobile applications carry sensitive user data, communicate with privileged backends, and are distributed directly to adversaries. We assess iOS and Android applications at every layer — binary, runtime, and API.

Mobile Security

Binary, Runtime, and API

01

Static Analysis

We decompile the application binary and analyse the source code, configuration files, and embedded secrets. We examine permissions, data storage practices, cryptographic implementations, and third-party SDK usage.

02

Dynamic Analysis & Runtime Instrumentation

We instrument the application at runtime using Frida and similar tooling — hooking encryption routines, bypassing jailbreak and root detection, intercepting traffic, and analysing runtime behaviour on both jailbroken and stock devices.

03

API & Backend Testing

Mobile applications are only as secure as their backends. We test the API layer the app communicates with — authentication tokens, IDOR vulnerabilities, insecure endpoints, and server-side controls that the app's UI bypasses.

04

Report & Developer Guidance

The final report is written for developers and security teams alike. Findings include reproduction steps, code-level references where possible, and specific remediation guidance aligned to OWASP MASVS and MSTG.

Platform Coverage

Where the Real Risks Hide

Aligned to OWASP Mobile Top 10, MASVS, and MSTG. Every finding is validated manually — no scanner output.
