What is Mobile Application Penetration Testing?
The Mobile Applications we use daily have significantly advanced in recent years. This advancement and reliance upon such services has exposed users to a variety of new security risks. Protecting these applications from new threats is a constant challenge, especially for developers who may not be security aware and typically work toward a performance deadline.
This service is designed to identify vulnerabilities in your mobile applications, providing a robust defense against potential risks.
How Our Mobile Application Penetration Testing Can Assist You
Clouds Dubai is your ally in mitigating risks associated with mobile applications. We identify vulnerabilities within both iOS and Android Operating Systems, offering a comprehensive Mobile Application Testing service.
Our approach involves a thorough examination of mobile applications at a storage level. Through reverse engineering, we scrutinize the application package, inspecting database and configuration files. Utilizing specialized technology, we simulate a malicious application stored on the device alongside your application to identify vulnerabilities that may be exploited by a malicious entity.
Additionally, we conduct a comprehensive examination of the API backend using our full API methodology, covering OWASP top 10 vulnerabilities, common misconfigurations, and in-depth business logic testing.
This Mobile Application Security service is seamlessly integrated into the Clouds Dubai Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS), providing you with full access to SecurePortal and other complementary tools.
Our Assessment Methodology
Our assessments include thorough security checks based on industry standards, encompassing the OWASP Top Ten and much more, ensuring a well-rounded evaluation
1
Information Gathering
All our VAPT security testing assessments start with information gathering. We use the Open-source intelligence (OSINT) framework to collect data from publicly available sources to be used in an intelligence context. Through information gathering, a great deal of actionable and predictive intelligence can be obtained from public, open-source, and unclassified sources
Enumeration
This process begins with detailed scanning and research into the architecture and environment, to discover potential attack vectors in the system, and the same can be used for further exploitation of the system.

Automated Testing
Once the target has been fully enumerated, we use both vulnerability scanning tools and manual analysis to identify security flaws. With vast experience, in-depth technical knowledge, and custom-built tools, our security engineers find weaknesses most automated scanners generally miss.
Exploration and Verification
At this assessment stage, our consultants review all previous data to identify and safely exploit identified application vulnerabilities. Once sensitive access has been obtained, the focus turns to escalation and movement to identify technical risk and total business impact. During each phase, we keep client stakeholders informed of testing progress, ensuring asset safety and stability.

Privilege Escalation
Once a vulnerability is exploited, the privilege accrued through the exploitation is further exploited to gain higher privilege or escalate the access level. Privilege escalation demonstrates real-world threats and attacks to systems in scope and other systems on the connected network.
Assessment Reporting
Once the VAPT engagement is complete, a detailed analysis and threat report, including remediation steps, is developed. We provide clear and concise reports, prioritizing the highest-risk vulnerabilities first along with detailed mitigation recommendations.

Retesting
At the conclusion of the remediation, we will provide one free retest of the target to validate the effectiveness of remediation. We will provide an updated VAPT testing report with a new risk level.
