Android & iOS Mobile Application Security Testing
The Problem
Mobile apps ship secrets, weak storage, and insecure APIs that attackers reverse-engineer at leisure. App-store approval is not a security review.

Android & iOS Vulnerability Assessment
Praxis-Q conducts end-to-end penetration testing across both Android APK and iOS IPA binaries. Our methodology includes decompilation, bytecode analysis, and dynamic instrumentation to uncover hardcoded secrets, insecure storage mechanisms, and improper cryptographic implementations. We simulate real-world attack scenarios including jailbreak/root detection bypasses, man-in-the-middle traffic interception, and reverse-engineering attempts. Each test accounts for platform-specific vulnerabilities—Android manifest misconfigurations, iOS KeyChain weaknesses, and unsafe third-party library integrations. Our team delivers platform-native expertise with proven experience across Fortune 500 apps.
OWASP MASVS Framework Alignment
Our assessments strictly follow OWASP Mobile Application Security Verification Standard (MASVS), the global benchmark for mobile app security requirements. We evaluate all eight critical domains: storage, cryptography, authentication, network communication, platform interaction, resilience, and code quality. This framework-driven approach ensures your mobile app meets industry expectations and regulatory mandates across GDPR, HIPAA, and RBI guidelines. Compliance-ready reporting connects findings directly to MASVS levels, facilitating developer remediation and audit trail documentation for stakeholders and compliance officers.
Static + Dynamic Analysis & Runtime Testing
Praxis-Q combines complementary testing methodologies to maximize vulnerability detection. Static analysis deconstructs app binaries for architectural flaws and code-level defects without execution. Dynamic analysis monitors runtime behavior—API calls, data flows, memory states—using advanced hooking and instrumentation frameworks. Traffic interception testing validates encryption strength and protocol compliance. Our blended approach captures vulnerabilities invisible to single-method testing, delivering 360-degree security visibility with comprehensive evidence supporting each finding.
5-7 Day Fast-Track Delivery & Expert Reporting
Praxis-Q's India-headquartered team accelerates your security timeline without compromising rigor. Our 5-7 day fast-track delivery leverages distributed expertise and pre-configured lab environments. Reports include vulnerability severity ratings, business impact assessment, proof-of-concept demonstrations, and detailed remediation guidance mapped to developer roadmaps. Executive summaries empower C-suite stakeholders; technical annexes support engineering teams. Remediation support and re-testing options ensure your app achieves security maturity before production release or app-store submission.
Compliance & Risk Mitigation
Mobile app vulnerabilities create regulatory exposure under ISO 27001, PCI-DSS (payment apps), HIPAA (healthcare), and data protection laws including GDPR and DPDP Act. Praxis-Q's assessments generate compliance evidence suitable for auditors and regulators. We identify business logic flaws affecting fraud prevention, user privacy, and data integrity. Our findings strengthen your security posture, reduce breach risk, and support continuous compliance monitoring through ongoing vCISO guidance and threat intelligence integration.
