Mobile App Penetration Testing Services
Bugstrix performs manual, OWASP-aligned penetration testing to identify exploitable weaknesses in iOS and Android apps, APIs, authentication, data storage, and business logic.
Expert Mobile App Security Testing
Bugstrix testers assess iOS and Android apps, supporting APIs, local data storage, authentication, and business logic, then provide risk-rated findings and practical remediation guidance.
Start AssessmentMobile App Attack Vectors We Test
Insecure Data Storage
Sensitive data stored unencrypted on devices, exposing credentials and personal user information to attackers.
Broken Authentication
Weak authentication mechanisms exploited to hijack accounts and gain unauthorized access to mobile apps.
Insecure Communication
Unencrypted data transmitted over networks intercepted by attackers through man-in-the-middle attacks.
Reverse Engineering
Attackers decompile and analyze mobile app code to extract sensitive logic, keys, and vulnerabilities.
Insecure API Endpoints
Poorly secured APIs exploited to access sensitive backend data and manipulate mobile app functionality.
Improper Session Management
Weak session tokens and management flaws exploited to hijack active user sessions and steal data.
Why Mobile App Pen Testing Matters
Mobile apps can expose sensitive data, APIs, authentication, and business logic to attackers. Penetration testing helps identify and validate exploitable weaknesses before they are abused.
Mobile app penetration testing can support HIPAA, PCI DSS, and GDPR security requirements, but compliance depends on the full scope of controls, remediation, and assessor review.
A compromised mobile app can damage customer trust and brand reputation. Proactive penetration testing helps reduce risk and protect sensitive user data.

Our Mobile App Pen Testing Approach
Reconnaissance
We gather intelligence on the mobile app architecture, supporting APIs, backend services, and technology stack to map the application attack surface and identify higher-risk entry points.
Threat Modeling
We identify and prioritize potential attack vectors and higher-risk areas using OWASP Mobile Top 10 guidance, application architecture, business impact, and relevant mobile threat intelligence.
Static Analysis
We analyze source code where available and review decompiled application binaries to identify insecure coding patterns, hardcoded secrets, client-side weaknesses, and sensitive-data exposure.
Dynamic Testing
We safely test the running mobile application and supporting APIs to identify runtime vulnerabilities, insecure communications, authentication and session weaknesses, and API security flaws.
Exploitation
Where authorized, our testers safely validate selected vulnerabilities to assess real-world impact and exploitability, with proof-of-concept evidence where appropriate.
Reporting & Fixes
Detailed vulnerability reports include risk-rated findings, CVSS scores, actionable remediation guidance, and free re-testing until reported vulnerabilities are verified as resolved.
