Does it cover the backend too?

Yes. Many mobile risks live on the server, so we scan backend APIs (REST/GraphQL) alongside the app.

How is this different from a mobile pentest?

Scanning is automated and runs every build; penetration testing adds reverse engineering and runtime exploitation. Use both for full assurance.

How do you avoid false positives?

Findings are AI-detected and human-verified before reporting, backed by a contractual zero false positives SLA.

Why Mobile Security Scanning Is a Business Revenue Lever

Every mobile release can introduce insecure storage, weak crypto or a leaky backend call — and app stores and regulators are unforgiving. Automated scanning on each build catches these issues early, protects your store rating and user data, and keeps mobile security moving at the speed of your release pipeline.

Comparison matrix:

With ImmuniWeb Mobile Scanning

Each build scanned for OWASP Mobile Top 10
Zero false positives — developers trust results
App + backend covered together
Store-readiness checked before submission
Affordable, frequent coverage

Without Continuous Mobile Scanning

Insecure storage and crypto shipped to users
Tool noise ignored, real risks slip through
Blind spots between mobile and server teams
Rejections or takedowns post-launch
Costly, infrequent manual testing only

Mobile Security Scanning vs Mobile Penetration Testing

	Mobile Security Scanning	Mobile Penetration Testing
Frequency	Every build	Per release or audit
Cost	Low, subscription-based	Higher, project-based
Depth	Broad automated coverage	Reverse engineering, runtime exploitation
Detection Bypass	Not in scope	Jailbreak/root and pinning bypass
Best For	Continuous build hygiene	Audits and high-risk apps

Recommendation: Scanning gives you fast, frequent coverage of common mobile weaknesses on every build. Deep risks — reverse engineering, anti-tampering bypass, chained app-plus-backend exploits — need a human. Use Neuron Mobile continuously and escalate to ImmuniWeb® MobileSuite for full penetration testing.

Mobile Security Scanning Coverage

Neuron Mobile scans your app and its backend across four dimensions:

Client & Storage

Insecure local data storage checks
Hardcoded secrets and debug artifacts
Platform misconfiguration and permissions
Static analysis of the app binary

Communication & Crypto

TLS and certificate-validation checks
Weak or misused cryptography
Sensitive data in transit
Insecure network configuration

Privacy & Standards

Excessive permissions and privacy exposure
PII handling vs best practice
OWASP Mobile Top 10 coverage
SANS Top 25 and CWE alignment

Backend, APIs & Delivery

Backend API checks (REST/GraphQL)
OWASP API Top 10 on mobile endpoints
CI/CD integration for every build
Zero false positives and free rescanning

OWASP Mobile Top 10 (2024) Detection Coverage

M1 Improper Credential Usage

M2 Inadequate Supply Chain Security

We flag risky third-party SDKs and libraries.

M3 Insecure Authentication/Authorization

We check login and authorization weaknesses.

M4 Insufficient Input/Output Validation

We scan for unsafe handling of untrusted data.

M5 Insecure Communication

We check TLS and certificate configuration.

M6 Inadequate Privacy Controls

We review PII collection and exposure.

M7 Insufficient Binary Protections

We assess hardening and obfuscation gaps.

M8 Security Misconfiguration

We review platform settings and permissions.

M9 Insecure Data Storage

We scan local storage for exposed data.

M10 Insufficient Cryptography

We flag weak key management and crypto.

The Mobile Scanning Workflow

Build Upload & Scope

We ingest your iOS/Android build and configure scope. Artifact: a configured workspace.

Phase 1

Phase 2

Automated Scanning

Neuron Mobile scans the app and backend. Artifact: a complete raw findings set.

AI + Human Validation

Findings are validated to remove false positives. Artifact: a verified, zero-false-positive list.

Phase 3

Phase 4

Risk Scoring & Reporting

Findings are ranked and reported with remediation. Artifact: a report mapped to OWASP Mobile.

CI/CD Gate

Results flow into CI/CD to block risky builds. Artifact: an automated mobile security gate.

Phase 5

Phase 6

Rescan & Verification

We rescan after fixes to confirm closure. Artifact: a clean rescan and updated evidence.

Shift-Left Security: Mobile DevSecOps & CI/CD Automation

Scan every mobile build automatically. Set policy thresholds and vulnerable builds are blocked from deployment automatically — no manual review, no merge of insecure code. ImmuniWeb plugs natively into GitHub Actions, GitLab CI and Jenkins, turning every pipeline into an automated security gate, so developers get fast, actionable feedback inside the tools they already use.

Industry-Specific Mobile Scanning

We tailor mobile scanning to your sector:

Mobile Banking & FinTech

Per-build scanning of secure storage, crypto and payment endpoints under PCI DSS.

HealthTech & Telehealth

PHI and privacy scanning aligned with HIPAA and GDPR across app and medical APIs.

Retail & Consumer Apps

Frequent scanning to protect accounts, tokens and store readiness.
