Enhanced security: Penetration testing can help you find and fix potential flaws in your mobile app, lowering the danger of security breaches.

Regulation compliance: Many industries have stringent security requirements that must be met. Penetration testing can assist you in ensuring that your mobile app satisfies these requirements.

Increased market credibility: By demonstrating that you take security seriously and have undergone penetration testing, you can increase your market credibility and attract more customers.

Cost savings: Identifying and fixing vulnerabilities before they are exploited allows you to save money on potential damage control or recovery efforts.

Discovery and planning: It includes defining the scope, timeline, and people involved among other things. The organization and the provider of web application penetration testing services must agree on the scope.

Assessment: The first step is to look for basic vulnerabilities in the mobile app, such as insecure communication, encryption flaws, platform abuse, and so on. The mobile app is evaluated both before and after installation using techniques such as:

• Analysis, both static and dynamic
• Local file examination
• Endpoint evaluation
• Analysis of the web server and traffic

Exploitation: Mobile app penetration is being attempted at this stage. Depending on the methodology used, the testers will use manual and automated testing tools to discover vulnerabilities in the mobile app at this stage.
