Mobile Application Penetration Testing

Mobile application penetration testing evaluates the security of mobile apps across various platforms (iOS, Android). Ouroboros Security conducts comprehensive unauthenticated and authenticated assessments aligned with OWASP Mobile Application Security Testing Guide (MASTG) guidelines. Our experts focus on identifying vulnerabilities throughout the mobile application to safeguard user data, backend systems, and APIs. Testing includes detecting OWASP Mobile Top 10 vulnerabilities, analyzing API communications, reverse engineering apps, and assessing risks such as insecure data storage, authentication flaws, and code tampering.

All tests adhere to the OWASP MASTG standards and checklist.

Common tools utilized during these assessments include:

MobSF (Mobile Security Framework)
Burp Suite Pro
Frida
Objection
APKTool
Drozer
jadx
Wireshark
Postman (for API testing)
ADB (Android Debug Bridge)
Manual Code Review

Our Approach

All testing performed is based on the NIST SP 800-115 Technical Guide to Information Security Testing and Assessment, OWASP Testing Guide (v4), and customized testing frameworks.



Planning

Rules of engagement are obtained and customer goals are collected.



Discovery

To find potential weaknesses, exploits, and vulnerabilities, we do enumeration and scanning.



Attack

Verify possible weaknesses by exploiting them, and carry out more research after gaining new access.



Reporting

Document all discovered exploits and vulnerabilities, unsuccessful attempts, and the company's advantages and disadvantages.
