What is Mobile App VAPT?
Mobile Application VAPT is the process of identifying security flaws in Android (.apk) and iOS (.ipa) apps — including both client-side and backend integrations. This test simulates real-world attacks targeting insecure storage, authentication flaws, exposed APIs, and platform misuse.
Why Mobile App Security is Critical
Mobile apps store personal data, financial information, and session tokens. A single vulnerability could lead to account takeovers, privacy violations, or full-scale breaches. For industries under SEBI, RBI, GDPR, or HIPAA — mobile security isn’t optional, it's mandatory.
Our Methodology: How We Test
APK/IPA Decompilation & Code Review
Dynamic Analysis via Emulators/Real Devices
API Traffic Interception & Manipulation
Testing for Data Leakage, Insecure Storage, Logging
Business Logic & Auth Flow Testing
Reporting + Remediation Advisory
We test using rooted/jailbroken environments to simulate realistic adversary behavior.
Common Vulnerabilities We Test
Insecure data storage & local caching
Weak authentication/token handling
Unencrypted API traffic & hardcoded keys
Insecure biometric / OTP flows
Poor certificate validation (MITM risk)
Abuse of deep links & custom URL schemes
