Mobile App Penetration Testing
What is Mobile Application Penetration Testing?
Mobile application penetration testing is a vital process designed to uncover and resolve security weaknesses within iOS and Android apps by simulating real-world cyberattacks. VOX offers this service in Dubai to detect, prioritize, and address vulnerabilities before hackers or malicious bots can exploit them. This proactive approach strengthens the security of sensitive data and key app functionalities, providing robust protection for both users and administrators.
The assessment encompasses all aspects of the mobile app, including code integrity, architecture, data storage, network communication, and authentication protocols.

How VOX Conducts Mobile Application Penetration Testing in Dubai
Pre-Assessment
VOX’s expert team collaborates with the app owner or developer in Dubai to define the test’s scope and objectives. This phase includes understanding the app’s functionality, potential risks, and setting up a tailored testing environment. Engagement rules are established, and necessary approvals are secured.
Information Gathering
The process starts with a comprehensive pre-assessment questionnaire covering both technical and non-technical aspects of the app. After initial consultations, VOX provides a clear evaluation approach, timeline, and costs, followed by signing an NDA and service agreement for full data protection.
Penetration Testing
VOX’s Dubai-based specialists identify vulnerabilities through simulated attacks on authentication, data storage, and session management. Testing methods include source code analysis, dynamic testing, manual testing, and reverse engineering.
Analysis
Each vulnerability is assessed for severity using industry-standard frameworks like OWASP and CVSS, with an emphasis on business impact and exploitation likelihood.
Reporting & Remediation
VOX compiles a detailed report highlighting prioritized vulnerabilities with remediation recommendations. After the app owner implements fixes, VOX retests to ensure security gaps have been effectively addressed.
Consulting & Certification
VOX provides continuous consultation during the remediation process and issues a certification confirming that your mobile app is secure and compliant with industry standards, especially for the Uae market.
