1. Comprehensive Vulnerability Assessment
- Identifying vulnerabilities specific to mobile platforms (Android and iOS).
- Scanning for common issues such as insecure data storage, weak encryption, improper session handling, and insufficient transport layer protection.
2. Static and Dynamic Analysis
- Static Analysis: Reviewing the application’s source code or binary files to uncover security flaws during development.
- Dynamic Analysis: Testing the app in a live environment to detect runtime vulnerabilities, such as insecure API calls or data leakage.
3. Reverse Engineering Protection
- Assessing the app’s resilience to reverse engineering.
- Implementing measures like code obfuscation, anti-tampering, and anti-debugging to protect intellectual property and sensitive information.
4. Secure API Testing
- Ensuring APIs connected to the app are secure by identifying issues like improper authentication, weak access controls, and unprotected endpoints.
5. Encryption and Data Protection
- Verifying that sensitive user data is encrypted both at rest and in transit.
- Ensuring compliance with data protection standards and regulations like GDPR or HIPAA.
6. Authentication and Authorization Testing
- Testing mechanisms such as multi-factor authentication, token management, and session expiration to ensure robust access controls.
7. Malware Analysis
- Checking for malicious code or components that could compromise the app or its users.
8. Platform-Specific Security Best Practices
- Adhering to Android and iOS security guidelines to ensure apps comply with platform-specific security requirements.
9. User Experience (UX) Security
- Balancing security with usability by integrating seamless security measures that do not hinder the user experience.
10. Compliance and Standards
- Ensuring the mobile application aligns with security standards such as OWASP Mobile Top 10 and regulatory requirements relevant to the industry.
11. Detailed Reporting
- Delivering a comprehensive report that includes identified vulnerabilities, their impact, and actionable recommendations for remediation.
12. Remediation Support
- Providing guidance to developers on fixing vulnerabilities and implementing best practices for secure coding in mobile app development.
