Description
VAPT – Mobile (Android)
By Cybervault – Qualified & Independent Security Auditors
Full Service Description
Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing (VAPT) – Mobile (Android) is a focused security engagement designed to identify, validate, and demonstrate exploitable vulnerabilities in Android mobile applications and their supporting backend integrations.
Cybervault delivers independent, risk-based Android VAPT services through the Make Audit Easy platform, covering production apps, staging builds, APIs, third-party SDK integrations, and mobile-to-backend communication channels.
Our engagement follows a structured, evidence-driven methodology aligned with internationally recognized mobile security standards and testing frameworks, including:
-
OWASP Mobile Top 10
-
OWASP Mobile Application Security Testing Guide (MASTG)
-
National Institute of Standards and Technology SP 800-115
The assessment combines static analysis (SAST), dynamic analysis (DAST), and manual penetration testing techniques to simulate real-world attacker behavior on Android devices and emulators.
We evaluate:
-
Insecure data storage
-
Weak encryption implementation
-
Improper certificate validation (SSL pinning issues)
-
Authentication & session management flaws
-
Insecure inter-process communication
-
Reverse engineering exposure
-
Root detection bypass
-
API communication vulnerabilities
-
Hardcoded secrets & exposed keys
-
Third-party SDK security risks
All identified vulnerabilities are validated to eliminate false positives and prioritized based on exploitability, business impact, and compliance exposure.
The engagement concludes with a comprehensive technical report and executive summary, including proof-of-concept evidence, risk classification, and a prioritized remediation roadmap for development and security teams.
