Mamo, a leading payments solutions provider in the UAE, transforms businesses by helping them consolidate payment collection, corporate cards, and expense management in one beautiful, intuitive platform. Over 1,000 companies have used Mamo to improve revenue collection, control spending, reduce costs and automate financial operations. Mamo's mission is to empower people to effortlessly access their money through a platform that demonstrates simplicity, empathy, and utility.
Mamo required a thorough security assessment of its cloud infrastructure, mobile applications, and web platform. Operating in a fintech environment where data security, user trust, and regulatory standards are crucial, Mamo had to ensure that every aspect of its payment solution could withstand sophisticated cyber threats. With thousands of businesses relying on their platform for payment collection and expense management, even a minor vulnerability could pose significant financial and reputational risks.
Furthermore, maintaining robust security measures became challenging as Mamo’s product offerings and customer base grew. Ensuring that every system remained operationally sound and met compliance requirements was critical. Achieving this balance was essential for upholding Mamo’s commitment to reliability, trust and transparency in financial services.
We conducted a comprehensive penetration test, following the Penetration Testing Execution Standard (PTES) and OWASP Testing Guides, to identify and address potential vulnerabilities across Mamo’s cloud, mobile, and web applications. The project began with an in-depth reconnaissance phase that mirrored the perspective of an actual attacker, gathering publicly available information and identifying possible points of entry.
We then used automated scanning tools to spot common security issues quickly while gathering an initial environment overview. Building on these findings, our team conducted thorough manual testing to investigate complex authentication flows, API endpoints, and custom-built features that automated tools often overlook. This hands-on approach helped us detect weaknesses that could pose significant threats.
We chained controlled cyberattacks using industry-standard tactics, techniques, and procedures to emulate real-world attack scenarios. All tests were performed in isolated environments to avoid disrupting live operations, and we maintained strict confidentiality.
Finally, we compiled our findings into a clear, actionable report highlighting critical vulnerabilities, recommended remediation measures, and strategic best practices for ongoing security enhancements.
