π οΈ Top 10 Mobile Penetration Testing Tools for Ethical Hackers
Mobile app security gets easier when you follow a repeatable workflow: triage fast, reverse with clarity, validate at runtime, and confirm what the app really sends over the network. ππ±
This carousel covers a practical stack used by many AppSec teams:
1) MobSF β automated static + dynamic analysis with clear, exportable reports
2) Frida β dynamic instrumentation for deep runtime visibility
3) Objection β Frida-powered mobile exploration with ready-to-use commands
4) mitmproxy β intercept, inspect, and replay HTTP(S) traffic with scripting
5) apk-mitm β automates APK prep so HTTPS traffic becomes visible faster
6) JADX β Dex-to-Java decompiler (GUI + CLI) for fast code review
7) Apktool β decode/rebuild resources + smali for deeper APK inspection
8) Drozer β Android assessment framework for IPC & component exposure
9) Androguard β Python toolkit for APK/DEX analysis and automation
10) Quark Engine β rule-based Android APK analysis engine that flags risky behaviors and generates readable reports (great for quick prioritization, especially on large or obfuscated APKs)
