Unmask Hidden Vulnerabilities, Protect Your Mobile Presence
At CypherLeap, our mobile application penetration test thoroughly examines iOS and Android apps from an attacker's perspective. It's a thorough security assessment designed to unmask hidden vulnerabilities common in mobile environments, like insecure data storage, weak authentication, or unsafe communication, and beyond.
By running realistic attack scenarios, our assessment gives your business a crucial insight into your application's resilience. This as a result supports your business, strengthens defences and ultimately protects your mobile presence and the sensitive user data it handles.
Our Offensive Security Services team conducts rigorously assessment and test cases adhere to the OWASP Mobile Security Testing Guide (MSTG), OWASP API Security Top 10 and OWASP Mobile Top 10 ,ensuring comprehensive vulnerability identification.
Methodologies
Assessment may be conducted using either a Black-Box approach, or Grey-Box approach
- Black-Box Assessment
- Grey-Box Assessment
Assessment in which the testing team will have no prior knowledge about the targeted environment, systems and endpoints.
Assessment in which the testing team will have very limited knowledge about the targeted environment, systems, endpoints, and may require walkthrough or guidance from one of your technical team.
- Authenticated
- Un-Authenticated
CypherLeap may request access to targeted user roles within the organisation to identify vulnerabilities from an authenticated user’s point of view. This allows your business to better understand associated risks and identify potential privilege escalation pathways.
The unauthenticated testing approach provides your business with visibility into what a potential threat actor could access and/or compromise with only access to the agreed testing scope.

Frequently Asked Questions
What platforms do you support?
We test both Android and iOS applications. We support APK and IPA builds, as well as apps distributed via Play Store, App Store, or enterprise deployment.
Do you test both the app and backend APIs?
Yes. We assess the mobile app in isolation and in conjunction with its backend services (APIs, authentication flows, databases).
What do you need to begin testing?
We typically require access to the mobile app build (APK/IPA), test accounts (if needed), and scope details. For grey-box tests, limited documentation or developer coordination may be helpful.
How often should mobile apps be tested?
We recommend penetration testing during major version releases, post-code changes, or annually as part of your secure SDLC.
