Mobile Application Penetration Testing

iOS and Android builds, the data they keep on the device, and the APIs they depend on — tested on real hardware, not an emulator alone.

Overview

A mobile app is three attack surfaces wearing one icon: the binary you shipped, the data it leaves on the device, and the backend it talks to. We test all three, on rooted and jailbroken hardware, against the build you are about to release.

Findings arrive in your channel as they are confirmed, with the exact steps and tooling needed to reproduce them.

What is covered

  • Static analysis of the shipped binary and its dependencies

  • Runtime instrumentation and hooking on real devices

  • Local storage, keychain, cache and logging handling

  • Certificate pinning and transport security

  • Deep links, IPC and exported components

  • The backend API the app depends on

How it runs

Five stages: Scope, Recon, Exploit, Report, Retest. We test the build you intend to ship, and we retest the build that fixes it — both included in the same engagement.

What you get

  • A working proof for every finding, reproducible on a device you own

  • Platform-specific remediation, not generic advice

  • A retest and a letter of attestation once the fixes land

  • Direct access to the engineer who did the work

Method and standards

  • OWASP MASVS for the verification standard and MASTG for the testing procedures

  • OWASP Mobile Top 10 for risk framing

  • Apple and Google platform security guidance for the device-side controls

  • Rules of engagement, test accounts and an abort path agreed in writing before day one
