This roadmap starts where Web Security and Ethical Hacking leave off, covering Android/iOS sandboxing, APK and manifest analysis, insecure local storage, and inter-app attack surface.

Every Pocket Is an Attack Surface
Mobile apps run on devices you don't control, storing sensitive data outside your normal network perimeter. This roadmap starts where the Web Security and Ethical Hacking roadmaps leave off.

- ✓ Understand Android and iOS app sandboxing and platform security models
- ✓ Identify insecure local data storage in mobile apps
- ✓ Analyze an APK's structure and manifest for security misconfigurations
- ✓ Recognize insecure inter-app communication (intents, deep links)
- ✓ Map mobile app findings to the OWASP Mobile Top 10
