Summary

Now, we have established what is meant by an iOS security. We started from absolute basics of what is an iOS operating system and where it's used? You studied the basics of an iOS app development in order to get familiar with the development process and perform code analysis. You learned how to develop a Hello World app and then stepped into some important iOS security concepts such as the iOS security model, iOS security architecture, iOS secure boot chain, iOS application signing, iOS application sandboxing, and so on. We are now good to start exploiting the vulnerabilities in iOS application. In the next chapter, we will do the lab setup that is needed for iOS app pentesting and will start looking for iOS vulnerabilities in the upcoming chapters.
