Mobile application penetration testing specifically evaluates the security of mobile apps, examining aspects like data storage, authentication, server-side controls, and insecure communication. It seeks to exploit vulnerabilities unique to mobile platforms, such as insecure code execution, privacy leaks, and unauthorized access to sensitive data. Mobile application penetration testing for Android and iOS apps investigates platform-specific vulnerabilities. For Android, this might include insecure use of content providers, broadcast receivers, and intent sniffer attacks. In the case of iOS, it could involve examining insecure data storage in plist files, Keychain misuse, and issues related to Touch ID, Face ID, or jailbroken devices. The testing helps in revealing critical issues that can be exploited through these platform-specific components or misconfigurations.
