Mobile Application VAPT

What Mobile VAPT covers
Manual assessment of Android/iOS builds and their backends: insecure storage, certificate pinning gaps, deep links, and API authorization flaws that matter for FinTech and consumer apps.
When teams engage us
Mobile Application VAPT helps EdTech, FinTech, SaaS, Healthcare IT, e-commerce, colleges, and mid-market teams reduce breach risk with accountable Cynarks engineers — not slideware.
Scoped & authorized
Clear rules of engagement and blast-radius limits before any testing or monitoring starts.
Business-ranked findings
Issues ordered by exploitability and business impact, not scanner volume.
Remediation partnership
Engineers available for clarification and retest of critical/high items where the SKU includes it.
Evidence for audits
Reports and dashboards your compliance and customer-security teams can reuse.
Client and API tested as one attack surface.
We instrument lab builds, review transport and storage, then abuse the same APIs your app calls — under written authorization.
Scoped phases with named outputs.
Four phases · 7–12 working days · each phase ends with named outputs you can hold us to.

What we test and harden
Flaw classes and disciplines we prioritize on every mobile vapt engagement.
Local storage
Keychain/Keystore misuse, plaintext tokens, logs.
Transport
TLS, pinning, proxy resistance, MITM scenarios in lab.
IPC & deep links
Exported components, URL schemes, intent abuse.
Auth flows
Biometrics, OTP, refresh tokens, session binding.
API authorization
Same BOLA/IDOR class issues as web, via mobile clients.
Binary hygiene
Hardcoded secrets, debug flags, third-party SDKs.
Tools we use on this work
What you receive
Named artifacts you can open, share with auditors, and hand to engineering — not vague promises.
Executive summary
Business-readable risk narrative for leadership and boards.
Technical findings
Reproduction steps, evidence, and CVSS/business context where applicable.
Remediation roadmap
Prioritized fixes with owners and suggested sequencing.
Evidence appendix
Screenshots, logs, and configs redacted for safe sharing.
Retest / cadence notes
Verification of critical/high fixes or monthly MSS status.
Client portal updates
Status visible to authorized client users when the engagement is on ops portal.
What we typically confirm
Flaw classes we most often validate on this engagement type — so scope conversations stay realistic.
Long-lived tokens in insecure storage
Missing or broken certificate pinning
Exported activities usable without auth
API calls missing object-level checks
Sensitive logs left enabled in release builds
Hardcoded API keys in the mobile binary
Deep-link handlers that skip authorization
Weak jailbreak/root detection with easy bypass
What we need from you
A short checklist so kickoff is not delayed. Most items take under an hour — and everything shared is covered by NDA from the first call.
Signed authorization / ROE before testing or monitoring starts
Named technical and business contacts with escalation paths
Asset list and environment access (VPN, cloud roles, builds)
Maintenance windows for invasive tests where required
Willingness to assign remediation owners within two weeks of report
