UNDERSTANDING REQUIREMENTS

Why Mobile Pentesting Matters?

Mobile flaws let attackers steal tokens, escalate privileges, and access backend services; testing proves exploitability, prevents breaches, and protects revenue and enterprise trust.

Insecure local storage

Secrets in plaintext or weak protection let attackers extract credentials

  • Leaked API tokens enable backend compromise
  • Account takeover grants attacker backend access

Broken authentication and session handling

Weak token validation and poor session expiry enable replay or impersonation

  • Forged tokens enable widespread account takeover
  • Session flaws allow lateral data access

Untrusted input and logic flaws

Client-side logic trusted by the backend permits business logic abuse

  • Manipulated parameters trigger unauthorized transactions
  • Business logic abuse causes contractual breaches

Insecure network and API design

Plaintext or misconfigured TLS, permissive CORS, and exposed endpoints leak data

  • Unauthenticated endpoints leak sensitive data
  • Misconfigured TLS permits large scale exfiltration

Tampering and reverse engineering

Exposed debug flags, hardcoded secrets, or weak obfuscation enable modified clients

  • Patched clients enable persistent malicious implants
  • Reverse engineering exposes secrets for escalation
WHATS INCLUDED

Software Secured’s Mobile Application Pentesting

We assume attacker techniques - binary tampering, runtime manipulation, and API abuse, then produce reproducible exploits, telemetry, and prioritized fixes for engineering and compliance workflows.

Binary analysis and instrumentation

We inspect compiled binaries and instrument runtime behavior

  • Reveal exploitable code paths quickly
  • Confirm insecure API usage and secrets

Local storage and secure enclave checks

We validate encryption, key storage, and secure element usage

  • Confirm keys stored securely in enclave
  • Reduce secret leakage from local storage

Authentication and session logic testing

We test token issuance, refresh flows, and SSO integrations

  • Reveal token flows vulnerable to abuse
  • Provide remediation timelines and prioritized fixes

API and backend trust mapping

We map app endpoints to backend controls and test privilege boundaries

  • Expose backend privilege boundary weaknesses
  • Enable prioritized API remediation steps

Runtime manipulation and tamper tests

We simulate device breaches and altered client behaviour to evaluate their effect

  • Measure impact of modified clients
  • Deliver reproducible tamper exploits and mitigations
OUR VALUE

What sets Software Secured Apart

Reproducible exploit chains

We deliver step-by-step proof-of-concept attacks with timelines

  • Show leadership measurable risk and impact
  • Provide engineers clear reproduction steps

Platform-aware metrics for leadership

Findings include vulnerability metrics that appeal to upper management

  • Demonstrate reduced risk and higher ROI
  • Prioritize detection and fixes using data

Portal feature

Each vulnerability includes impact, repro, and remediation. Reports include technical evidence linked to executive summaries

  • Deliver audit-ready reports for compliance teams
  • Guide engineers with context and retest steps

Integration and remediation velocity

Jira and Slack integration plus pentest project management accelerate fixes

  • Accelerate fixes and streamline developer workflows
  • Reduce audit delays through faster closure

“I was impressed at how thorough the test plan was, and how "deep" some of the issues were that their testing uncovered. Also, the onboarding process was simple and painless: they were able to articulate exactly what they needed from us, and showed a clear understanding of the product they would be testing during our initial demo”

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you test both iOS and Android apps?

Yes. We test native iOS and Android, hybrid apps, and progressive web apps, including platform-specific storage and runtime protections.

Can you test apps that integrate with third-party SDKs?

Yes. We analyze SDK behavior, network interactions, and any third-party trust that could leak data or extend the attack surface.

Do you require source code or can you test binaries?

We test from binaries if source is unavailable, but unstripped binaries or source speeds reverse engineering and increases coverage depth.

Will testing break user data or production services?

We follow strict rules of engagement; destructive actions are avoided or run in controlled windows with rollback and safe-scope guidance.

How do results support audits and compliance?

Deliverables include repro steps, impact statements, CVSS/DREAD scoring, Portal evidence, and remediation verification to satisfy auditors and procurement teams.
