Methodology

Our security audit process follows five structured phases, designed to identify vulnerabilities exhaustively and document each finding with clear technical evidence.

01

Reconnaissance

Passive and active information gathering about the target. We map the complete attack surface: subdomains, exposed technologies, DNS records, open-source intelligence, and any data that could facilitate an entry vector. This phase establishes the real scope of the audit and reveals assets that often go unnoticed.

Tools: Shodan theHarvester DNS enumeration WHOIS
Deliverable: Attack surface map
02

Decompilation

Analysis of the application's source code and structure. In the case of Android apps, we decompile the APK to obtain readable Java/Kotlin code, map the class architecture, identify third-party libraries, and reconstruct the data flow. This phase gives us full visibility of what the application does internally.

Tools: jadx JADX-GUI apktool dex2jar
Deliverable: Documented decompiled code
03

Static Analysis

Code review without execution, looking for vulnerabilities in business logic, credential handling, sensitive data storage, input validation, insecure configurations, and risky development practices. We combine automated tools with expert manual review to leave nothing behind.

Tools: jadx MobSF Manual code analysis
Deliverable: List of potential vulnerabilities
04

Dynamic Analysis

Runtime testing with instrumentation and manipulation of the running application. We intercept network traffic, modify behaviors in real time, bypass security controls, and confirm vulnerabilities with functional proof-of-concept tests. This phase separates false positives from real and critical findings.

Tools: Frida objection Burp Suite mitmproxy
Deliverable: Confirmed vulnerabilities with PoC
05

Reporting

Professional documentation of findings and recommendations. We deliver an executive report for stakeholders (no technical jargon, with clear business risks) and a detailed technical report for the development team (with reproduction steps, evidence, CVSS scoring, and step-by-step remediation guides).

Tools: Technical documentation CVSS scoring
Deliverable: Executive + technical report with remediation
