Why Pentest Mobile and Web Applications?

Performing penetration testing on mobile and web applications is essential to proactively identify vulnerabilities such as insecure authentication, broken access controls, and injection flaws before attackers exploit them. It ensures compliance with industry standards like OWASP Mobile Top 10, OWASP Web Top 10, and testing methodologies from the OWASP Testing Guide and PTES (Penetration Testing Execution Standard). Modern tools such as Burp Suite, OWASP ZAP, MobSF, Frida, and Postman are used alongside techniques like reverse engineering, dynamic analysis, and manual source code review. These tests simulate real-world attack scenarios to assess the effectiveness of security controls and identify weaknesses in both client-side and server-side components. By regularly conducting penetration tests, organizations strengthen application security, protect sensitive user data, and build trust with their customers.
