iOS & Android
The device is hostile territory. We test like it already is.
Mobile apps ship code to devices you do not control. Privout tests both the client binary and the backend APIs it communicates with — on rooted, jailbroken, and instrumented devices — to find the trust assumptions that break when the attacker owns the device.
What We Test
Targeted coverage, not a generic scan.
Binary & Runtime Analysis
Reverse engineering, runtime hooking with Frida, method swizzling, and tampering detection bypass on both platforms.
Local Data Storage
Keychain/Keystore misuse, plaintext credentials in shared preferences, SQLite databases, and backup extraction.
Transport Security
Certificate pinning validation and bypass, TLS configuration, and traffic interception with proxy-aware instrumentation.
Authentication & Token Handling
Biometric bypass, token storage and lifecycle, session binding to device identity, and OAuth flow implementation.
Inter-Process Communication
Deep link hijacking, intent sniffing, custom URL scheme abuse, and exposed content providers or broadcast receivers.
Backend API Trust
Client-side enforcement assumptions tested server-side — price validation, feature flags, entitlement checks, and hidden endpoints.
Methodology
How the engagement runs.
Static Analysis
Binary decompilation and source review to identify hardcoded secrets, insecure configurations, and logic paths before runtime testing.
Dynamic Instrumentation
Frida-based hooking and runtime manipulation to bypass protections, intercept function calls, and modify application behavior.
Device-Level Testing
Testing on rooted Android and jailbroken iOS devices to simulate a motivated attacker with full device control.
API Layer Validation
Every client-side control is validated against the server — testing what happens when the app is removed from the equation.
Deliverables
What you walk away with.
Every engagement closes with clear, actionable output — not a data dump.
Platform-specific finding report covering client and server findings
Runtime exploitation evidence with Frida scripts and reproduction steps
OWASP MASTG alignment mapping
Complimentary retest to validate applied fixes
