🧠 Why Learn Mobile Hacking?


Mobile devices are treasure troves of sensitive data—passwords, financials, private media, and more. Ethical hackers study mobile vulnerabilities to defend users, systems, and networks.


> ✅ Goal: Learn how hackers exploit systems so you can stop them.



📘 Prerequisites: What You Should Learn First


Before practicing ethical mobile hacking, master the following areas:


🔗 Networking


IP Address, DNS, Proxy, VPN

Packet sniffing, network layers


💻 Programming


Python (scripts & automation)

Java/Kotlin (Android apps)

Bash (command-line operations)


📲 Mobile OS Architecture


Android OS Internals (Dalvik, ART)

iOS Framework (Sandboxing, Signing)


🔐 Cybersecurity Concepts


OWASP Mobile Top 10

MITM attacks, XSS, SQLi

Rooting/Jailbreaking risks


📲 Android Hacking: Tools & Techniques


🔧 Core Concepts

APK Files (.apk – Android Package)

ADB (Android Debug Bridge)

Root Access (Full device control)

Permissions (Camera, SMS, Microphone)


🧪 Simulation Tools


Technique Description Tools
🔗 Phishing Demos Fake login page creation for labs SET, Evilginx, SocialFish
📡 MITM (Sniffing) Capture traffic on same Wi-Fi Wireshark, Bettercap
🧬 APK Reverse Engineering Decompile, edit, and analyze APKs Apktool, JADX, MobSF
🎛️ Keylogger Simulation Log keystrokes on rooted test phones Termux, DroidLogger


🍏 iOS Hacking: Tools & Techniques


> ⚠️ iOS hacking is limited due to Apple’s tight ecosystem. Jailbreaking is required.


🔧 Core Concepts


Jailbreaking (Bypass iOS restrictions)

Sandboxing & App Signing

File system access & tweak injection


🧪 Simulation Tools


Frida (Dynamic Instrumentation)

Cycript (App runtime analysis)

iRET (iOS reverse engineering toolkit)


🧪 Simulated Scenarios for Practice


> Always use a virtual lab or emulator. Never target real devices without permission.


Rogue Wi-Fi Hotspot (Fake access point)

Malware Testing in Android Emulator

Fake Banking App for learning fraud protection

OTP Spoof Simulation

Keylogging on Rooted Android


🛡️ How to Protect Yourself from Mobile Hackers


Protection Method Why It Matters

✅ Don’t install apps from unknown sources Reduces malware risk

🔐 Use secure lock screens Prevents physical access

🌐 Use VPN on public Wi-Fi Prevents sniffing

🔁 Update apps and OS regularly Fixes vulnerabilities

🔍 Monitor app permissions Blocks data misuse

🔒 Enable 2FA Stops unauthorized logins
