In the present day, Mobile applications is a critical component to any business and is at the core for customers interacting with the brand, and associated services and products. Consumers spend most of their digital time on their smartphones, while trusting applications with their sensitive and personal information. Mobile application security and privacy is a concern for enterprises - big or small. No one wants their customer’s valuable information ending up in the wrong hands because of a faulty line of code or a vulnerable third-party component. The consequences could be drastic and tragic, with brand reputation being damaged and social media being filled with negative messages by the competitors and consumers themselves. We believe that organizations who value their users, have a core responsibility of being at the fore-front of security. This is where Pentstage comes in to ensure that while you take care of the business, we can take care of the security issues. We help secure your mobile applications by identifying all possible security issues before the attackers do, thus making your applications bullet-proof. Pentstage can work with you at all the different stages of your product lifecycle:
• Planning and pre-development phase
• During development
• Post-development and before launch
• Already launched
Pentstage also offers a continuous manual testing subscription for our selected clientele, who require each build of their application thoroughly tested for any possible security issue.
