Overview

Built For Penetration Testing

Android apps face a constantly shifting threat model — rooted devices, custom ROMs, side-loaded malware, and a deeply integrated platform mean weak crypto or insecure storage is a real-world breach, not a theoretical risk.

We test against OWASP MASVS levels 1–2, run Frida-based dynamic instrumentation, intercept TLS, and follow every request through to the backend so client and server share the same security baseline.

Schedule a Consultation

OWASP MASVS

Industry-standard mobile security verification model.

Side-Loading

Tampered APKs spread quickly outside official stores.

Insecure Storage

SharedPreferences and local DBs often contain tokens in plain text.

Reverse-Engineering

APKs are trivial to decompile without obfuscation and integrity checks.

Why It Matters

Reduce Risk, Protect Trust

OWASP MASVS

Industry-standard mobile security verification model.

Side-Loading

Tampered APKs spread quickly outside official stores.

Insecure Storage

SharedPreferences and local DBs often contain tokens in plain text.

Reverse-Engineering

APKs are trivial to decompile without obfuscation and integrity checks.

Cert Pinning Bypass

Improper pinning bypassable with off-the-shelf Frida scripts.

Backend Trust

Backend APIs often assume the mobile client enforces controls.

Our Services

Penetration Testing Coverage

End-to-end validation across Android applications.

APK Reverse-Engineer

Decompile to Smali/Java, hunt secrets, map permissions.

Runtime Instrumentation

Frida/Objection hooks, root-detection bypass, jailbreak emulation.

Storage Inspection

Validate keystore use, prefs, SQLite, and external storage.

Network Interception

mitmproxy, certificate pinning bypass, traffic replay.

Backend API Testing

Treat the API as a first-class web target.

Permission Audit

Review manifest, intent filters, exported components, and content providers.
