Mobile Malware Analysis & Spyware Detection
Identify, analyze, and neutralize advanced mobile threats. From Pegasus-class implants to commercial stalkerware, we provide deep forensic visibility.
Combating the Invisible: Advanced Mobile Threats
In an era of state-sponsored surveillance and sophisticated cyber-espionage, mobile devices have become the primary vector for high-value targeting. Our mobile malware analysis services are designed to detect what antivirus and standard security apps miss: Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs), zero-day exploits, and surgical spyware implants.
Whether you suspect your phone has been hacked or you are a high-risk individual (journalist, activist, executive) needing a proactive audit, our team provides state-of-the-art detection capabilities. We don't just look for known signatures; we look for the behavioral anomalies that reveal the presence of sophisticated malware like Pegasus, Predator, or Reign.
The question 'is my phone hacked?' is rarely answered by a simple scan. It requires a deep forensic dive into system logs, network traffic, and process memory to identify the subtle footprints of a professional implant.
How We Detect State-Level Spyware
Detection of advanced mobile spyware requires a combination of network telemetry and on-device forensic analysis. Our methodology is based on the latest research from Amnesty International, Citizen Lab, and our own internal vulnerability research.
1. Network Traffic Analysis: We utilize man-in-the-middle (MITM) proxies and cellular baseband sniffing to identify connections to known command-and-control (C2) servers or suspicious domain patterns used by spyware vendors.
2. Forensic Log Analysis: We analyze 'DataUsage.sqlite', 'Netusage.sqlite', and iOS 'Sysdiagnose' files for evidence of process execution that bypasses standard sandbox protections.
3. Memory Forensics: Using tools like Frida, we can inspect the running memory of suspected processes to find decrypted strings, payload fragments, and injection points.
4. MVT & IOC Matching: We leverage the Mobile Verification Toolkit (MVT) to scan for thousands of Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) associated with known spyware families.
# Scanning iOS backup for Pegasus/Predator IOCs using MVT $ mvt-ios check-backup --output /cases/suspect_01/mvt_results/ ~/Backups/iphone_dump/ # Monitoring suspicious process behavior with Frida $ frida -U -n 'com.apple.Preferences' -l monitor_hooks.js
Analyzing the Full Spectrum of Threats
Malware isn't always state-sponsored. We also specialize in detecting and removing 'Stalkerware'—commercial software used for domestic surveillance—which often hides as system utilities or 'parental control' apps.
Our analysis includes the reverse engineering of Android APKs and iOS Mach-O binaries to understand the full capabilities of the malware. Does it record audio? Does it exfiltrate location? Does it have a self-destruct mechanism?
We provide a comprehensive report that details the infection vector (e.g., a 0-click iMessage exploit or a malicious PDF), the data that was potentially exfiltrated, and the steps taken to neutralize the threat.
- Detection of zero-click exploits (iMessage, WhatsApp vectors)
- Analysis of Mobile Remote Access Trojans (RATs)
- Removal of commercial stalkerware and tracking apps
- Identification of malicious profiles and MDM enrollments
- Reverse engineering of obfuscated and packed malware samples
- Neutralization of persistent boot-level implants
What to do if your phone is hacked
If our analysis confirms an infection, we provide a structured remediation plan. Simply 'factory resetting' a phone is often insufficient for high-level spyware, as some implants can persist in the recovery partition or utilize cloud-sync features to re-infect the device.
We guide you through the process of 'burning' the device, securing your cloud identities, and implementing a high-security mobile posture to prevent future re-infection.
Our experts can also assist in attribution—determining who may have deployed the malware based on the C2 infrastructure and the specific exploit chains used.
Proactive Security Audits for High-Risk Individuals
Don't wait for an infection. We offer proactive 'Health Checks' for individuals and organizations. We analyze your device's historical logs for any signs of past compromise and harden your settings to reduce the attack surface against Pegasus-style threats.
This includes configuring 'Lockdown Mode' on iOS, setting up advanced DNS filtering, and providing training on how to recognize the subtle signs of a mobile targeted attack.
