Mobile Application Attack Simulations

Keep devices and applications secure

As mobile applications continue to dominate the digital landscape, they become prime targets for cyberattacks. From banking apps to business tools, mobile applications often handle sensitive data and connect to critical backend systems, making them attractive to malicious actors.

Bramfitt Technology Labs offers comprehensive mobile application attack simulations to assess the security of your iOS, Android, and hybrid applications. Our simulations mimic real-world attack scenarios, identifying weaknesses in your mobile apps before they can be exploited, ensuring both your users and your business stay protected.

Complete overview of security

BTL’s mobile application attack simulations cover all aspects of mobile app security, from client-side vulnerabilities to backend APIs and cloud services. Our service is tailored to provide an in-depth security assessment of your app’s architecture, code, and data handling practices.

This includes:

Platform-specific vulnerability testing: Addressing both Android and iOS-specific risks, including insecure storage, improper use of platform APIs, and weak permissions handling.
Reverse engineering and code tampering: Testing whether attackers can decompile, modify, or repackage your app to introduce malicious code or bypass security measures.
API security testing: Evaluating how your app communicates with servers and third-party services, ensuring that APIs are secured against injection attacks, unauthorised access, and data leakage.
Data protection assessments: Ensuring encryption standards are met for data both at rest and in transit, protecting sensitive user information from theft or exposure.
Authentication and authorisation testing: Testing the robustness of login systems, token management, and session handling to prevent attacks like credential stuffing, session hijacking, and privilege escalation.

Protection of sensitive user data: We help secure personal, financial, and business-critical data that mobile apps handle, reducing the risk of data breaches and ensuring user privacy.
Compliance with industry standards: Whether you operate in finance, healthcare, or another regulated industry, our simulations help ensure your mobile apps meet stringent security standards and legal requirements.
Resilience against sophisticated attacks: We simulate advanced attack vectors, from reverse engineering to API exploitation, to ensure your app is resilient against even the most complex threats.
Enhanced trust and user confidence: Securing your mobile app enhances your brand’s reputation, giving users confidence that their data is protected and their interactions with your app are safe.
Reduced business risk: By identifying and fixing vulnerabilities before they can be exploited, you mitigate the risk of costly breaches, regulatory fines, and operational disruptions.

How our Mobile Application Attack Simulations work

1. Initial Assessment and Scoping

We start by understanding the unique architecture and functionality of your mobile application, as well as its integration with backend systems and third-party services.

2. Static and Dynamic Analysis

We perform both static analysis (examining the code without execution) and dynamic analysis (testing the app in real-world conditions) to identify security flaws in the app’s code, data handling, and interactions.

3. Simulated Attacks

Our team simulates a variety of mobile-specific attack vectors, including reverse engineering, insecure storage, and API-based attacks. We also test for vulnerabilities like insecure communication, improper authentication, and insufficient encryption.

4. Ongoing Monitoring

During the simulation, we provide live feedback on any vulnerabilities or weak points discovered, offering immediate recommendations for mitigation.

5. Comprehensive Reporting

Once the simulation is complete, we deliver a detailed report that includes all vulnerabilities, their potential impacts, and step-by-step remediation strategies. Our report also prioritises the vulnerabilities based on their severity.

6. Post-Simulation Support

We remain available to support your development and security teams as they work through the remediation process, offering guidance on best practices and security improvements to ensure long-term protection.
