Mobile Application Exploitation (iOS and Android)

A completely hands-on training on exploiting mobile applications for the iOS and Android platform. Even wondered how different attacking a Mobile application would be, from a traditional web application? This training was hosted before at BruCON Spring Training 0x08 as well as other larger conferences and was always very well received !

Course Description

After the introduction of iOS 10 and Android 7 Nougat, We are bringing an updated version of the course with the latest tools & techniques. This will be an introductory course on exploiting iOS and Android applications, suited well for both beginners as well as advanced security enthusiasts. The training will be based on exploiting Damn Vulnerable iOS app, Android-InsecureBankv2 and other real-world application vulnerabilities in order to give an in-depth knowledge about the different kinds of vulnerabilities in Mobile applications. This course will also discuss how an attacker can secure their application using secure coding & obfuscation techniques. After the workshop, the students will be able to successfully pentest and secure applications running on the various operating systems.


The training will also include a CTF challenge in the end where the attendees will use their skills learnt in the training to solve the CTF challenges. The students will be provided with Slides, tools and VMs used during the course.
