End-to-end security testing for iOS and Android apps
Mobile apps run on untrusted devices, with local storage, biometric sensors, push tokens, and backend APIs all in play. A single insecure Keychain entry, an unpinned TLS certificate, or a poorly validated deep link can expose your users and business to serious risk.
CyberAlpha performs full static and dynamic analysis for both iOS (Swift/Objective-C) and Android (Kotlin/Java) apps, mapping every finding to OWASP MASVS and the MSTG checklist. We test on jailbroken and rooted devices using Frida, Objection, and custom tooling to simulate real attacker capabilities.
Every engagement includes reverse-engineering analysis, API/backend testing, and a clean remediation roadmap your mobile and backend teams can act on immediately.
Schedule a ConsultationUntrusted Runtime
Attackers can jailbreak, root, debug, and reverse engineer your app at their leisure.
Sensitive Local Storage
Tokens, PII, and session data live on-device — insecure storage is a top MASVS risk.
Weak Crypto in Apps
Hardcoded keys, custom crypto, and weak algorithms are routinely found in production binaries.
API Abuse via Mobile
Mobile apps expose backend APIs that attackers replay, tamper with, or fuzz at scale.
Mobile is a high-value attack surface

API Abuse via Mobile
Mobile apps expose backend APIs that attackers replay, tamper with, or fuzz at scale.
Supply Chain SDKs
Third-party SDKs can leak data, phone home, or ship vulnerabilities into your binary.
App Store Requirements
Apple and Google increasingly require security attestation for regulated and fintech apps.
Full MASVS-aligned mobile coverage
Static, dynamic, and runtime testing across both platforms — nothing left unexamined.
What you gain from our mobile testing
Platform-Specific Expertise
Dedicated iOS and Android specialists — no generic web testers doing mobile.
MASVS Compliance
Formal alignment with OWASP MASVS L1/L2 and MSTG controls for regulated apps.
Binary Protection Review
Validate obfuscation, root/jailbreak detection, and anti-tampering effectiveness.
Backend API Included
Every mobile test includes the backing API endpoints the app consumes.
SDK Risk Assessment
Identify risky third-party SDKs leaking data or introducing vulnerabilities.
Free Retest Included
Re-verify all fixes post-remediation at no additional cost.
Real mobile flaws we routinely exploit
Insecure Storage
Plaintext tokens in SharedPreferences, unencrypted SQLite, and world-readable files.
Pinning Bypass
Cert pinning defeated via Frida hooks or misconfigured TrustManager.
Hardcoded Secrets
API keys, JWT secrets, and AWS credentials embedded in compiled binaries.
Insecure IPC
Exported activities, content providers, and deep links without permission checks.
Broken Root Detection
Trivial bypass via Magisk, Frida, or Objection undoing all protections.
Backend API Abuse
Server-side BOLA, BFLA, and mass assignment through mobile API endpoints.
Everything you need to ship secure mobile
