Codesecure Solutions is a leading mobile app security testing company based in Chennai, India, specializing in identifying and remediating vulnerabilities across iOS, Android, and hybrid mobile applications. With over 5 billion smartphones in use globally and mobile apps becoming primary attack vectors for data theft, financial fraud, and credential compromise, comprehensive security testing is essential before releasing apps to public app stores.
Our dedicated mobile security team combines deep expertise in platform-specific vulnerabilities with advanced testing tools to uncover hidden flaws in your app's architecture, data storage, communication channels, and authentication mechanisms. We test against the complete OWASP Mobile Security Top 10 framework, covering improper credential usage, inadequate supply chain security, insecure authentication, insufficient input validation, insecure communication, inadequate cryptography, and more. Whether you are building fintech apps, healthcare applications, or enterprise mobility solutions, our mobile app security audit ensures your applications are fortified against real-world attack scenarios before they reach users.
Our mobile app security testing services in Chennai cover every aspect of mobile application security, from device storage and data encryption to API communication and authentication mechanisms. We take a holistic approach testing both native and hybrid applications across multiple device versions and OS levels.
Our mobile app security testing methodology is aligned with the OWASP Mobile Security Top 10, ensuring comprehensive coverage of the most critical vulnerabilities affecting iOS and Android applications today.
We test how mobile apps store sensitive data locally. Unencrypted SQLite databases, SharedPreferences, UserDefaults, and file system storage can expose PII, credentials, and authentication tokens if device is compromised or data is extracted via backup exploitation.
Our testers evaluate mobile app network communication for missing certificate pinning, downgrade attacks, Man-in-the-Middle vulnerability, TLS/SSL misconfiguration, and insecure API endpoints that could allow data interception during transmission.
We analyze mobile app authentication implementations for weak password validation, insecure token storage, session management flaws, biometric authentication bypass, and multi-factor authentication weaknesses that could enable unauthorized access.
We test mobile apps for weak encryption algorithms, hardcoded cryptographic keys, improper key management, deprecated SSL/TLS versions, and insecure random number generation that could compromise the confidentiality of sensitive data.
Our team checks mobile app resilience against reverse engineering attacks including code disassembly, dynamic instrumentation, runtime tampering, and memory analysis. We evaluate obfuscation effectiveness and anti-debugging mechanisms protecting intellectual property.
We test for improper use of platform features including exported components in Android, deep link validation, universal link handling in iOS, and insecure permission usage that could allow other apps to access sensitive functionality or data.
Organizations across Chennai and India trust Codesecure Solutions for their mobile app security testing needs. Here is what makes our approach effective and reliable.
Mobile applications are the primary touchpoint for user engagement in modern digital business. Our mobile app security testing experience spans multiple industries in Chennai and across India.
We follow a structured, repeatable methodology for mobile app security testing that combines industry standards including the OWASP Mobile Security Testing Guide (MASTG), MASVS Level 2, and our proprietary mobile testing framework.
We set up the testing environment with necessary tools and configure devices for security testing. For apps with source code, we perform static analysis examining code quality, secure coding practices, and architectural security issues using SAST tools.
We test the running application using Frida, Burp Suite, and platform-specific tools to intercept network traffic, manipulate app behavior, access memory, and test runtime security mechanisms. We analyze API communication and identify insecure patterns.
We examine how the app stores data locally including databases, preference files, cache, and temporary storage. We test encryption implementation, key management, and verify that sensitive data is not exposed in plaintext or backups.
We disassemble and decompile the app to evaluate code complexity, identify hardcoded secrets, test obfuscation effectiveness, and assess vulnerability to reverse engineering and runtime tampering attacks.
We thoroughly test authentication mechanisms, session management, token security, and authorization controls. This includes testing for privilege escalation, horizontal access control bypass, and multi-factor authentication weaknesses.
Mobile applications increasingly handle sensitive customer data and financial transactions. Regulatory frameworks increasingly mandate security testing of mobile apps as part of compliance requirements. Our mobile app security assessments help you meet these obligations effectively.
Mobile banking apps must comply with RBI guidelines requiring regular security assessments and penetration testing. Payment apps processing card data must meet PCI DSS Requirement 6.2 covering regular security testing. Healthcare apps handling patient data must comply with HIPAA Security Rule requirements for access controls and encryption. At Codesecure, we align our mobile app security testing with the specific controls required by each regulatory framework applicable to your organization.
For organizations pursuing ISO 27001 certification, our mobile app testing covers control A.14.2 (secure development and maintenance of applications). For DPDP Act 2023 compliance, we test personal data protection mechanisms in mobile apps. Our comprehensive web application security testing complements mobile testing to provide complete coverage of your customer-facing applications.
Indian fintech companies face additional regulatory requirements from SEBI for stock trading apps and from RBI for payment aggregators operating digital payment systems. Both regulators mandate regular security testing and vulnerability assessment of mobile applications. The DPDP Act 2023 requires data fiduciaries to implement reasonable security safeguards for personal data processed through mobile apps, including encryption, access controls, and audit logging.
Our mobile app security testing reports include compliance mapping sections that document how each finding relates to specific regulatory controls. This makes it easy for your compliance team to demonstrate due diligence during audits and regulatory examinations. Combined with our network security audit and cloud security assessment services, we provide a complete security testing program that satisfies even the most stringent regulatory requirements.
Common questions about our mobile app security testing services in Chennai.
Mobile app security testing is a specialized form of penetration testing focused on identifying vulnerabilities in iOS, Android, and hybrid mobile applications. Mobile apps handle sensitive user data, financial transactions, and authentication credentials. Without proper security testing, apps can be reverse engineered, data can be extracted from device storage, API connections can be intercepted, and authentication mechanisms can be bypassed. With billions of mobile devices in use globally, securing mobile applications is critical for protecting user data and maintaining trust.
Yes. Codesecure has dedicated testing expertise for iOS (Swift/Objective-C), Android (Java/Kotlin), and cross-platform frameworks including React Native, Flutter, Ionic, and Xamarin. We test applications on various device versions and OS levels. Each platform has unique security testing requirements, and our team has deep knowledge of platform-specific vulnerabilities including those in the iOS sandbox, Android manifest security, intent handling, and platform-specific APIs.
The OWASP Mobile Security Top 10 includes Improper Credential Usage, Inadequate Supply Chain Security, Insecure Authentication/Authorization, Insufficient Input/Output Validation, Insecure Communication, Inadequate Cryptography, Improper Code Quality, Insufficient Binary Protections, Insecure Data Storage, and Extraneous Functionality. Codesecure tests mobile applications against all these categories, covering both client-side and server-side vulnerabilities affecting mobile platforms.
We can test mobile apps with or without source code. If source code is available, we perform static analysis and code review in addition to dynamic testing. Without source code, we conduct black-box testing including reverse engineering, runtime analysis, and API interception testing. Most organizations provide source code for comprehensive assessment, but we can perform thorough security testing regardless of code access.
Yes. Pre-release app testing is one of our key services. We can test applications on development builds, beta versions, internal releases, and enterprise deployment channels. Pre-release testing allows developers to fix issues before the app reaches users and avoids app store rejection due to security issues. We provide detailed reports with remediation guidance that developers can implement before app store submission.
