Why is it worth

If you wish to stay ahead of attackers

  • Identify the most critical attack vectors
  • Find the vulnerable parts of your app, APIs, and user enrolment process
  • Quantify the severity of vulnerabilities and get to know what it would take for attackers to exploit them

If you cannot afford a loss of reputation

  • Prevent re-publishing of a tampered clone of your app
  • Get practical guidance on how to fix the vulnerabilities
  • Prioritise your security roadmap to reach a high level of app self-protection with the minimum of effort

Mobile apps are vulnerable to reverse engineering by design

Attackers and malware will always be trying to reverse engineer published apps to find a breach. Research by the Talsec Security Lab team has detected reverse engineering and tampering attempts within a very short time after the launch of apps that deal with sensitive user data and payments.

The Talsec team can catch and investigate such attack attempts on the apps equipped with Talsec App self-protection and online monitoring SDK

Threat modelling

Penetration testing

Ethical hacking

Identify attack vectors and prioritise by the risk level

Threat modeling

  • Interview the app development team about assets, generic architecture and use-case
  • Detailed threat modelling report inspired by OWASP methodology. Includes an attack-tree diagram and description of assets, threats, agents, attack vectors, etc.
  • Brief description of possible controls and preventive measures that can be applied
  • Presentation and next steps recommendations

Penetration testing

complete picture about app security level, vulnerabilities, and obtain guidelines on how to fix the security flaws

  • Optionally include threat modelling as part of the grey-box testing method
  • Complete a full set of OWASP and other standards-based sets of manual and automated tests
  • Produce a detailed report with results, observations, and vulnerabilities rated by severity
  • Estimate the exploitability of the most relevant attack vectors in terms of the man-days of work needed for an attacker to exploit and the necessary resources
  • Develop guidance to possible fixes with examples and recommendations
  • Produce an executive summary that may be exposed to your clients
  • Optional compliance check with app stores and regulations (GDPR, PSD2 etc.)

Ethical hacking

Apply attack methods to verify exploitability of discoveries

  • Select the most relevant and efficient attack vector
  • Exercise the attacking methods to gain access to assets or demonstrate the exploitability of vulnerabilities
  • Report with achieved results of attack and summary of risk severity level related to a given attack vector
  • Guidance and recommendations towards further security improvements
