Our 4-Step Mobile App Penetration Testing Process

green tick

Application Mapping: The application is mapped, and key files are analysed to gain an understanding of the mobile application’s logic, data and potential entry points and architectural vulnerabilities.

green tick

Static Analysis: The mobile application is assessed from both an automated and manual perspective, attempting to discover any logical flaws. Intents, receivers and any inter-application communication channels will also be analysed.

green tick

Misconfiguration Checks: The application will be examined to find any security misconfigurations. These include (but are not limited to) insecure backup settings, Lack of SSL Pinning and Jailbreak/root detection and use of insecure random number generators.

green tick

Input Validation/Sanitisation: Many mobile application vulnerabilities are the result of poor (or non-existent) input validation, sanitisation, and output encoding. All user-controllable input is closely tested to identify any instances of malicious code injection weaknesses. Common vulnerabilities such as Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) and SQL Injection fall within this category.
