Mobile application penetration testing assesses the security of Android and iOS apps and the way they handle data, talk to backend services, and protect themselves on the device. This phase covers preparing a testing environment, reverse engineering and static analysis of the application package, and exercising the running app to uncover weaknesses such as insecure data storage, hardcoded secrets, weak transport protections, and exposed backend infrastructure.
