Mobile Application Security Testing
Client-side and backend testing of mobile apps guided by OWASP MASVS and MASTG.
What it is
Mobile apps carry sensitive data onto unmanaged devices. We test Android and iOS applications against the OWASP Mobile Application Security Verification Standard (MASVS) — covering storage, cryptography, authentication, network communication, platform interaction, code quality and reverse-engineering resilience — using the techniques of the Mobile Application Security Testing Guide (MASTG).
Coverage
- Insecure data storage on device
- Weak cryptography and key management
- Authentication and session flaws
- Insecure network communication and certificate validation
- Platform misuse (intents, deep links, biometrics)
- Reverse engineering and tampering resistance
- Backend API security supporting the app
How we deliver
- Scope — platforms, builds, test accounts and backend agreed in writing.
- Static analysis — app package, configuration and code review.
- Dynamic testing — runtime instrumentation, traffic interception and storage inspection.
- Validation — confirm exploitability and data impact.
- Reporting — MASVS-mapped, risk-rated findings.
- Retesting — verify fixes before release.
Outcomes
- MASVS-aligned assessment results
- Client and backend findings in one report
- Release-blocking risks clearly flagged
- Retest evidence for app stores and enterprise reviews
