Android Penetration Testing

If we look around us, there is not a single person who does not have one or the other latest version of a smartphone in their hands. The concern arises because of the fact that people often store extremely critical PII (Personally Identifiable Information) including bank details, passwords, social identity numbers etc. on their phones but do not take the necessary steps to secure it. So, major companies are employing mobile security professionals who can take this worry away from the user’s hands. They conduct in-depth pentests focusing on client-side security, network security, hardware and file system.

This course will focus on code-level security, which means that you will now understand the working of codes on the backend of the mobile applications and then be able to determine the type of attacks that can be performed on the application. The information gained from performing the pentests can help devise proper mitigation strategies to secure the Android applications.

This course is designed for beginners as well as for experienced professionals who are aware of the android architecture, OWASP Top 10 Web-Application vulnerabilities and Linux basic commands. Moreover, the candidate should be aware of android device rooting and developer’s mode.
