Mobile application security from KOLORO
MOBILE APPLICATIONS SECURITY is the first expectation of a user’s interaction with a brand.
People operate dozens of programs on their smartphones every day. Many of them transmit sensitive information that could be of interest to attackers. Therefore, when running apps on a device, users want to be sure that they are safe. Robust data protection is a prerequisite for running the application. At KOLORO, we develop custom clients, including applications, with security in mind. This allows us to design programs already taking into account possible attacks and weaknesses. Thanks to this, our applications are characterized by a high level of reliability.

Mobile app security and user trust
The use of apps brings certain dangers to users due to the theft of their personal data, especially banking data. The more popular an application is, the more specific threats its use brings.
At KOLORO Studio, we analyze the security of an application against typical and non-standard threats. Contact us for a security assessment of your application.
The most common application security threats:
- use of unsecured data transmission channels ;
- lack of input data validation;
- weak methods of encrypting information;
- the availability of classified data in the public domain;
- no protection against malicious code input, etc.
To analyze the security of an application, KOLORO offers:
- a team of perfectionist developers who will not hand over a “raw” application to production;
- personal manager who will prepare a detailed report based on the results of analytics;
- test of mobile application security on platforms: iOS, Android, Windows Phone.
Mobile application security analysis is:
- Evaluating application security using dynamic, static, or hybrid testing methods;
- Implementing application security at the development stage;
- Use of a variety of testing models (one-time safety assessment, continuous and controlled);
- network, system and program tests.
Application security monitoring: stages of work
application architecture research → threat modeling → code security testing → manual + automated testing → Fuzz Testing → load testing → analytics and reporting
Assessing the security of an application is a step in the development of a quality product. We perform protection testing during the core lifecycle of the application.
Mobile application security testing: key actions
- Verification of user data protection against automated systems attack and possibility of login/password/card number fraud.
- Protection from SQL and DoS attacks.
- Analyzing the “adequacy“ofthe system: whether the application gives access to encrypted information without proper authentication, checking session timeout.
- Checking the cryptography of the application, fixing bugs.
- Prevent malicious injections while the program is running, file caching, cookie actions or when users download files, etc.
At the end of testing, we provide a detailed report, which contains a list of identified weaknesses, tips for their elimination and recommendations for improving protection.
