Live On-Site / Live Virtual
Learn the skills necessary to identify and analyze vulnerabilities in Android, with an in-depth understanding of Android OS internals, including its architecture, security features, and kernel-level mechanisms, as part of becoming a Certified Android Security Researcher (CASR). Gain expertise in advanced reverse engineering, analyzing crash logs and memory dumps, and developing proof-of-concept (POC) exploits to demonstrate potential risks in Android-based devices.
This in-depth and immersive two-day program offers participants an opportunity to enhance their understanding of Android Internals, Reverse Engineering as well as Android Application Exploitation. It provides a broad understanding of Android system architecture, covering topics such as Android Drivers, Modules, Linux Kernel, and the Android Binder. Participants will gain hands-on experience in reverse engineering, exploit development basics for the ARM platform, and deep dive into memory management and related vulnerabilities.
The course also covers Android’s boot, recovery, rooting processes, and permissions, along with security features like DAC, CAP, SECCOMP, and SELinux. For a practical learning experience, the course covers how to extract and decrypt boot images for Android devices. The course covers handson exercises for symbolicating the Android kernel and porting exploits to other Android devices. Advanced Frida techniques such as custom tracing, profiling, and memory inspection are explored with real-world applications. Case studies on prominent malware and custom malware samples designed for the course shed light on reverse engineering and advanced forensics techniques. Application Security related vulnerabilities occurring due to Android components are also covered as a part of the course. The training also includes hands-on learning using vulnerable applications created for the course, and a wide range of real-world application vulnerabilities in order to give an in-depth knowledge about the different kinds of vulnerabilities in Mobile applications.

While prior experience is helpful, the course is designed to accommodate various skill levels. It provides a structured learning path, starting from foundational concepts and progressing to advanced techniques.
The preparation time for the Certification varies based on your individual learning pace and level of engagement post-training. On average, participants spend a few days to several weeks preparing, which includes both theoretical learning and hands-on lab practice. It is recommended to spend at least 2-3 weeks practicing before attempting the Certification Exam after the training.
No, the training that you purchase from 8kSec, including the course materials is exclusively for your individual use. You may not reproduce, distribute or display (post/upload) lecture notes, or recordings, or course materials in any other way — whether or not a fee is charged – without the express written consent of 8kSec.
For On-Site/Virtual Courses during private trainings/conferences, we provide a customized certificate after the completion of the course. Please note that the Certificate of Course Completion is different from the one obtained after clearning the Certification exam.
For Virtual/Live Trainings, we will provide you access to our Lab environment and an instruction guide during the training.
Once you submit your report, one of the members of our review board will review the report and provide with the results in 3 business days.
The fee to retake the certification exam is USD $119. To schedule your re-examination, simply email info@8ksec.io and our logistics team will be in touch.
You can find our Training Schedule at https://8ksec.io/public-training/. To schedule a Live Virtual or Live On-site private training for a group of 5+ attendees, email trainings@8ksec.io and our logistics team will get in touch with you to organize one.
