According to the Verizon 2024 Mobile Security Index, nearly half of respondents agree that mobile devices have gone from a nice to have to a critical business tool, and 50% say mobile devices have greater access to sensitive information than they did a year ago. Yet, much of mobile application development and testing is focused on development and testing on phones. This testing leaves out a critical component of how many mobile applications are used in many corporate environments, on iPads.
Corellium is focused on supporting true mobile application development, wherever those mobile applications are used, which is why we have just announced that our platform now supports the latest iPad OS, which is iPadOS 18, as well as previous versions iPad OS 17 and 16. Corellium is the only virtual hardware platform that can be used to test apps on iPad OS with multiple versions concurrently. Simulators can’t replicate real world scenarios accurately and testing with physical iPad devices is expensive and time consuming.
Corellium Viper also gives mobile application development teams a larger depth and breadth of phone models for testing their applications, including support of iPhone 16e and camera functionality for testing for iOS 18.1 on iPhone SE3.
Lastly, Viper’s MATRIX functionality gives teams the ability to run more thorough automated scans on a wider range of applications and devices, as well as interoperability with the tools that developers use most to shorten development cycles and accelerate testing. Our scanning functionality automates OWASP testing, including checks for OWASP Mobile Application Security Testing Guide (MASTG ), Mobile Application Security Testing Weakness Enumeration (MASTWE), Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE), and Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE). Deep explanations include impact, evidence, and remediation guidance for findings to accelerate secure development.
And our latest integration with Appium, truly transforms iOS testing, with teams able to create exact iOS device copies (including jailbroken versions), run parallel tests, and reset devices instantly without device management headaches. Learn more about our latest releases here.
