GENEVA, October 12, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

High-Tech Bridge, a global web security company, has announced today a free online service "Mobile X-Ray" to test mobile application security and privacy. The new service performs dynamic (DAST), static (SAST) and behavioral analysis of native and hybrid iOS and Android apps. It promptly detects the wide spectrum of most common weakness and vulnerabilities, including OWASP Mobile Top Ten, and provides a user-friendly report with remediation guidance.

Recently, Uber's mobile app was caught with a dubious capacity to silently take screenshots of user's phone screen. Just before, Equifax had to remove their mobile applications from the app stores due to interceptability of sensitive data. Now, anyone can proactively detect similar problems using the free service.

Ilia Kolochenko, CEO and Founder of High-Tech Bridge, says: "Mobile applications have become an inseparable part of everyday business and private life. In light of skyrocketing data breaches, many different research reports urge the enhancement of mobile application security and privacy. Unfortunately, most developers just don't have enough resources, time or budget to properly test their mobile app before going to production. At High-Tech Bridge, we are excited to fulfil this gap and offer a unique online service for the benefit of the cybersecurity community and independent developers.

We should, however, keep in mind that the most dangerous and detrimental vulnerabilities mainly lie in the mobile backend that can be reliably detected using ImmuniWeb® Mobile. It also provides advanced manual testing of business logic and identifying other complicated flaws undetectable in full automation."

High-Tech Bridge also provides free SSL/TLS security test.
