Comprehensive Report


As there are different mobile environments available out there and each one of them has a different architecture, there is no single automation framework available which can cover all the platforms. Hence the approach, the tools and the methodologies required to test applications for different environment are also different and require more manual effort.

We take pride in saying that we prefer manual mobile app testing to yield great results, as opposed to the automated tests. The testing is performed using actual hardware devices as well as emulated environment so that a more in-depth understanding can be attained and thorough analysis can be performed.

Mobile App Pentest Report

After completing the active potion of the assessment, we formally document the findings. The output provided includes an executive summary as well as detailed technical findings. The summary report is written for senior management and hence includes a high-level overview of assessment activities, scope, most critical/thematic issues discovered, overall risk scoring, organizational security strengths, and applicable screenshots.

Whereas the technical findings section of the report contains all vulnerabilities listed, with tech details. Wherever applicable we also provide the steps to replicate the problem, and provide references and recommendations to help fix the reported vulnerability. The security problems are categorized in 3 separate levels as below.

Critical - Vulnerability which can be exploited by a potential hacker who can cause highest possible impact with a highest probability.

High - Vulnerability which can be exploited mostly internally or rarely externally, which can cause a moderate impact with moderate probability.

Low - Vulnerability which can be exploited with least probability or impact but must be fixed as a good practice to strengthen overall security
