Android and iOS pentesting is the process of identifying vulnerabilities in mobile applications and devices to ensure the security of data and systems. It involves both static and dynamic analysis, including code inspection, API testing, and reverse engineering of applications. Tools such as Frida, Objection, and MobSF are commonly used to discover and remediate security flaws. Testing may include exploiting improper permissions, intercepting traffic, and evaluating authentication controls. This practice is essential to protect applications against threats such as data leakage and malicious attacks.
Welcome — this module builds a practical, deep foundation for iOS mobile pentesting. We’ll cover how iOS apps are structured, what to look for during initial analysis, and the core runtime & storage primitives you’ll encounter when moving to static and dynamic analysis. Everything here is safe, practical, and intended to prepare you for hands-on … Ler mais

Scope & ethics: This module is for authorized, lab-only testing and for defensive hardening of your own apps. We’ll cover inventorying and testing third-party SDKs, tracking transitive dependencies, vetting privacy/telemetry behavior, and securing your build/signing pipeline end-to-end. Emphasis is on evidence-driven analysis, repeatable labs, and CI/CD enforcement—not exploitation of systems outside written scope. 18.0 Learning … Ler mais
Scope & ethics: Everything below is for authorized, lab-only testing and for hardening your own apps. The module covers Android WebView, in-app browsers, and hybrid stacks (Cordova/CAPacitor, React Native, Flutter, Ionic), with a focus on JavaScript bridges, navigation, storage, cookies, OAuth flows, and server-side headers. We emphasize defensive patterns, repeatable lab procedures, and audit-grade evidence. … Ler mais
Short reminder: this module shows how to detect, test, and fix crypto misuse. It does not provide offensive exploit recipes for attacking real systems. Use all examples only in authorized labs or on your own test apps. 16.0 Learning objectives After this module you will be able to: 16.1 Cryptography fundamentals (precise checklist) When you … Ler mais
Scope & ethics reminder: All analysis, extraction, and tests described here are for authorized assessments and lab environments only. Never perform these actions against production user devices or systems without explicit written permission. This expanded Module 15 goes far beyond the high-level overview: it gives you the full playbook — commands, scripts, forensic workflows, developer-safe … Ler mais
Scope & ethics: This module is designed for authorized, lab-only testing and secure design review of Android applications—particularly high-risk apps such as banking. It covers how to systematically assess and harden Android components (Activities, Services, BroadcastReceivers, ContentProviders) and the IPC (Inter-Process Communication) surfaces they expose: Intents, Binder/AIDL, deep links, FileProvider, and PendingIntent. We emphasize defensive … Ler mais
Purpose & scope: This module gives you a complete, auditable workflow to (1) validate integrity- or security-bypass claims, (2) collect forensic-grade evidence from Android app tests, and (3) produce reproducible results that hold up under scrutiny. It covers artifacts to demand from third parties, chain-of-custody, time synchronization, redaction/PII hygiene, structured logging, replay-safe lab procedures, and … Ler mais
Purpose & scope: This module gives you a complete, defensible workflow to design, test, and audit Android device/app integrity. You’ll learn how Play Integrity, Android Key Attestation, and local integrity signals (root/emulator/debug/instrumentation checks) should be implemented, how to validate them server-side, how to interpret vendor claims (“we bypassed Play Integrity / RootBeer”), and how to … Ler mais
Scope & ethics reminder: This module is for authorized, lab-only testing and for building defensible implementations in banking apps. It explains how to design and validate auth and crypto correctly. It does not provide offensive instructions for breaking real systems. This module ties together identity, sessions, device security, and cryptography on Android: how to design … Ler mais
Safety & scope reminder: everything in this module is intended for authorized, lab-only testing against apps you own or have explicit written permission to test. The guidance is designed to help ethical testers and defenders harden mobile apps and their backends (particularly banking apps). Never perform interception, manipulation, or unauthorized scanning against systems outside your … Ler mais
Scope & ethics reminder: everything here is intended for authorized, lab-only testing (intentionally vulnerable APKs, test builds, or apps where you have written permission). Native reverse engineering and manipulation are powerful techniques — do not apply them to production systems or devices you do not own/are not permitted to test. Where a technique could enable … Ler mais
