Thanks a lot sir I enrolled it

[@dgmckenzie11]

Great insights. This exam is rarely reviewed or talked about on Reddit, etc. I've heard that the material for this course is dated 4-5 years ago? I feel it'd be hard for eLearnSecurity to keep up with mobile OS as it changes every year, but I'm sure v3 is around the corner. I figured it's Andriod focused as Apple has that wall garden approach with their products. Would you recommend waiting for v3 or is the material still relevant to today's standards?

It's pretty good, if you supplement with the Udemy courses as well, it's definitely worth it to learn some extra tools. I think the overall process and labs of the course are good, but just needs a little updating with outside knowledge. eLearn talks alot about jailbreaking/rooting but these articles are useful to avoid that koz.io/using-frida-on-android-without-root/, medium.com/@dinezh.shetty/setting-up-frida-without-jailbreak-on-devices-running-latest-ios-12-4-27c7cfa6c9a2. Please look into eLearnSecurity's new pricing model before buying and making your decision. They've changed it substantially it in the last few days,

@@aaronwilson6611 Awesome. Thanks for the links. I saw INE is offering all courses for $2K a year, with a current year free. Sounds like a good deal.

Did you make it? What do you think?

[@jackbutler4903]

Did you do the premium plan or the annual/monthly. I am wondering if I need the "online labs" or if the course content and resource are enough. I do have experience in android/ios security.

[@WilsonSecurityGroup]

I was in the previous cybersecurity pass. Now I've transitioned to the Premium since I wanted to get all the content. I don't think the labs are 100% necessary for eMAPT as long as you understand the concepts. I would recommend using InjuredAndroid on GitHub to test some of the attack vectors.

[@tokyorockstarVALORANT]

hows it going, wanted to ask where should i learn a bit of android app development before taking this course

[@rahulnair1923]

Hey, Thank you for the video. Really helped me to understand the course. I also followed the Udemy courses you advised and they are pretty good. Just one doubt, if you can clarify : I don't have MacOS instead I have an iPAD for testing purposes. Can I go ahead with the course and certification ?? Does the certification needs MacOS or XCODE or we can complete the certification without that ?? Please assist. I am planning to take the certification this month end.

[@WilsonSecurityGroup]

hey Rahul - thanks for watching. If you check out the certification process www.elearnsecurity.com/certification/emapt/process, the target applications are only Android-focused. There is no need for xCode or an iDevice in regards to the exam.

[@WilsonSecurityGroup]

Also no physical devices will be needed as long as your device is capable of running Android Studio and an emulator. If you will be getting deeper into pentesting mobile apps (especially iOS) I recommend getting a macbook and also having a physical device like an iPhone or iPad. This is totally outside the scope of the exam materials but: to sign an iOS mobile app using Objection you will need a provisioning profile which requires physically hooking an iPhone, iPad, iPod to a macbook to obtain a provisioning profile.

I asked eMAPT certification body INE are they going to teach IPA file reversing but no response from them can you please let us know about this

[@WilsonSecurityGroup]

Thanks for the question. From what I remember there was a little bit of gdb but it was not anything really in depth.

[@DigitalTrendzy2023]

@@WilsonSecurityGroup sir as per my knowledge gdb isnt present in 2023 environment . i am asking about Hopper disassembler not dynamic analysis of IPA (Iphone Application )

[@WilsonSecurityGroup]

@@DigitalTrendzy2023 I don't recall there being anything about Hopper but might be wrong on that one. I know it talked about some disassembly tools but I don't remember the exact ones.

Hello thank you so much for this review it help me a lot but bro you mention we should make our android app to exploit two targets app in course they don’t talk about how make app can give any course describe how I make app also it new idea and confusing how I exploit android app by evil app . Thank you and I wait you response

[@WilsonSecurityGroup]

Your app doesn't need to be anything too special. I would recommend looking into this developer.android.com/training/basics/firstapp and maybe check out some udemy courses on development. The exploits that are demonstrated in the course are enough to pass the exam, think of how you could use the exploits from the perspective of another app when it comes to local storage, URLs, etc.

[@xxxtest5716]

@@WilsonSecurityGroupbelieve me I don't any kind of hint and I know the exploit it very easy to understand but it first time i duel with app develop , Thanks for this valuable information. Can you send names of the Udemy courses you recommend?

[@WilsonSecurityGroup]

@@xxxtest5716 this one seems to be rated pretty well www.udemy.com/course/a-beginners-guide-to-android-app-development/, you'll definitely want to at least brush up on a little Java

0:36 "The exam as far as I understand" So you didn't take the course or the exam and you are doing a review about it???

[@WilsonSecurityGroup]

No. I took the course content and passed the exam. You did not understand the context of my statement. In the context of my statement I am saying: as far as I understand iOS was not chosen for the exam because you need a MacBook to pentest iOS applications.
