Mobile Security Testing
Mobile Application Security evaluation
Smart phone is the fast replacing habitual computer. As per user base is quickly
replacing to mobile, hacker are also moving their awareness toward the mobile. So,
Due to this reason, maintaining the security test on such applications have
become a very urgent.
Companies offer multiple types of Security Testing evaluation for Mobile
Application to create mobile application more flexible against attack. Our evaluation
tests the applications against the Mobile Top 10 OWASP as well as our Plynt
Mobile Applications Criteria of Certification.
Based on the application for risk profile, we may select either one of the given
below services or both –
- Test for Mobile Application Penetration: Such tests target at recognizing the vulnerabilities of applications that can be exploited using installed applications on mobile phones. The evaluations attempt to catch the vulnerabilities and are done by the posing as registered users as well as some anonymous users. Such type of tests involves creating custom threat profile in order to find out the contextual security of vulnerabilities that are exact to the applications. The test is performed identified threats for the realizations.
- Review the Mobile Application Source Code: These tests target at recognizing the vulnerabilities at the level of source code. The assessment attempts to catch the vulnerabilities that are available due to design or coding flaws and another exploitable vulnerabilities posing as some registered users. Such types of test also involve making the profiles of custom threat. It contains the service provided in the above category of services.
You have been conducting the Mobile Applications Security Tests evaluations (for
the application like as Mobile Banking application, M - Commerce application,
Mobile Payment system etc .) from all over the platforms –
- Testing for iPad Application Security
- Testing for iPhone Application Security
- Testing for Blackberry Application Security
- Testing for Android Application Security
- Testing for Nokia Application Security
- Testing for Windows Mobile Application Security
How we do Mobile Security Testing?
You test the mobiles application in detail for vulnerabilities that put our
valued record at high risk. You just follow a threat profile based test cases
derivation for your application. The threat profiles are derived from the
different types of mobile applications that we have tested since previous 4
years as well as global standard like the Top 10 OWASP Mobile. You tests and available
the vulnerabilities with proofs. You also propose contextual and relevant
solution for patching such vulnerabilities. Once the patching have been finished,
the mobile applications are re-tested. If the mobile applications clear the Criteria of Plynt Mobile Application
Certification, the "Paladion Mobile Applications Security Testing
Certificate" will be provided.
What do you get?
Paladion will give you full report after the assessment completion. The
reports will highlight the weaknesses with evidences in the system. It will
also give solution for fixing each vulnerability identified. The report wills standard
the searching of the evaluation with the Top 10 OWASP Mobile. In such project
case of a Plynt Certification, the reports would highlight the scope of non compliance
with the Criteria of Plynt Mobile.
- Help us to get rid of threat by liftng the threshold for intrusions of potential, fraud and theft.
- Gives us with the self-confidence that our applications are secure.
- Assists us to decrease our security of customer concerns regarding our mobile applications.
- Provides stakeholder the assurance that our mobile applications meet the largest standards of security in the security of Mobile.
- Confirms the supervision as well as the external auditor that we have in use the urgent initiatives to defend the applications against threats of mobile.
What promise we do?
- Our applications are tested against the best of the standards of security by experienced test engineers.
- Correct outputs are given in less time by our automated cum manual approaches.
- On demand services are confirmed with the flexibility to schedule our tests.
- Help is guaranteed throughout our mitigation life cycles.
- We shall get a Plynt Certificate positioning that our mobile applications satisfy the all requirements of Mobile Security.
- Our applications should standards with the Top 10 global OWASP Mobile standard.

Security For Mobile
The bang of mobile application displays the completely newly set of security
challenge. Instead of most of the tools and perform the desktop applications
and traditional web are equally valid to mobiles, there are few unique concern
to keep in brain, containing stolen or lost
stolen device, mobile malware, aimed attacks on devices & so more.
With the using of uTest, companies can make sure that related mobiles apps
are the as secure as the left of their application.
How Mobile Security Testing Works
uTest handpick the trusted team, white hat expert of security to review the
possible security or privacy related weaknesses in our mobile app. Such services
help answer questions related to following:
- Confidentiality: Does our applications keep our private record private?
- Integrity: Can the record from our apps can be verified and trusted?
- Authentication: Does our apps verify we are who we say we are?
- Authorization: Does our applications completely limit users privileges?
- Availability: Can any attacker charge the offline app?
- Non-Repudiation: Does our apps keep the records of event?
Since such areas are sometime unnoticed by in house team, it can be helpful
to leverage test engineers who are highly skilled in test cases, but new for
our applications.
Services for Security Testing
- Manual Penetration: Hand picked teams of white hat experts of security will manually search our applications for common vulnerabilities of security.
- Static Security Testing: Utilizing the updated in the technology of automated, uTest will check our static code for general holes of security.
- Dynamic Security Testing: Using live test engineers with automated tools, uTest will find our active code for SQL, XSS and another general attacks.
Tips for testing vulnerabilities under Mobile Security Testing:
There are several possible weak spots in apps of mobile. To Know where they
are can obtain us off to start good.
- Data flow -- Can We set up data for audit trail, what lost where, is record in transit safe, and who can contact to it?
- Data storage -- Where is record saved, and is it in what for encrypted? Cloud solution can be a fragile links for security of data.
- Data leakage –To log files for data leaking, or notifications through out?
- Authentication -- When and where is user faced to validate, how can those authorized, and can we path the password and ID’s in the systems?
- Server side controls – Do not focus on the side of client and suppose that the back end is totally safe and secure.
- Points of entry -- Are all possible client side route into the applications being verified?
Provided above are only the tip of automation tool in terms of complete
security testing for mobile app. Feature in the demands peculiar of compliance
in our industries, because it is very important that we meet the right standard
for mandates and regulations. The bulk of internal departments of IT are simply
not equipped to carry out the rigorous testing that is urgent to pass mobile
apps as safe side.
It is also worth awareness that we can not just test any apps and overlook
about that. If we common the developer forums for all of the most important platforms
of mobiles, We shall search that new security threats are generating all the
time, and it takes much hard work to stay side by side of the situations and
take the urgent actions to keep our app and system safe and secure.
