Mobile pen testing is crucial to strengthen the security of a specific app before delivering it on portable devices. Penetration testing is basically imitating the hacker attacks to locate the vulnerable spots in each app. This procedure is performed by tech specialists and the latest attack methods are used. However, unlike the real hacker attacks, this testing results in gathering information and proposing solutions for improving app security.
