Safeguard student data, including minors.
Learning apps hold identity, performance and behaviour data, often about minors - sensitive and tightly regulated. Mobexa tests the build students and teachers install, finds where records and credentials are exposed, and turns it into GDPR and KVKK-ready evidence.
Where learning apps expose data
The exposure that triggers a data-protection issue lives on the device and in the SDKs - the surface only binary-level testing reaches.
Student records
Identity, grades and behaviour data stored or transmitted without proper protection on shared devices.
Exam integrity
Client-trusted scoring and weak tamper resistance - what keeps assessment manipulation and credential abuse harder.
Tracking SDKs
Analytics and ad libraries that quietly collect from minors, inventoried and mapped to privacy duties.
Evidence an institution accepts
Edtech answers to schools, ministries and parents. Mobexa produces signed, traceable evidence mapping each finding to the GDPR or KVKK duty behind it, and can run inside your environment so student data never moves to be tested.
- GDPR, KVKK, ISO 27001, NIST mappings on every finding.
- Minors-data exposure from third-party SDKs surfaced.
- Self-hosted or private deployment for institutional data.
- Continuous testing as the app and its SDKs change.
One picture across every app
Student app, teacher app, parent and admin tools - findings land in one deduplicated backlog with severity, ownership and SLA timers, so the platform reads as a single, reportable risk picture across Android and iOS.
The specific risks of apps used by students and minors
EdTech apps carry a population regulators protect hardest: children. The recurring findings are less about money and more about data flowing where it legally cannot go.
Tracker SDKs in child-facing flows
Advertising identifiers collected from under-13 and under-16 user journeys, a direct COPPA and GDPR-K exposure.
Class rosters cached in clear
Student names, grades and guardian contacts stored unencrypted for offline access.
Video and messaging tokens embedded
Third-party classroom-video and chat service keys compiled into the app, usable outside it.
Weak session handling on shared devices
Long-lived sessions without re-authentication on tablets that pass between students by design.
Education mobile security, answered plainly
How do you secure an education or e-learning app?
You test the build students and teachers install. Mobexa decompiles the shipped app, runs it on an instrumented device, and finds where student records, credentials and assessment data are exposed - plaintext storage, weak tokens, leaky SDKs, exposed endpoints - and maps each finding to the data-protection duty behind it.
Why is student data a special concern?
Education apps hold data about learners, often minors, across identity, performance and behaviour. That makes them sensitive and tightly regulated, so the local exposure on the device - and the third-party SDKs quietly collecting data - is exactly what an assessment has to cover.
Can the evidence support data-protection review?
Yes. Findings map to OWASP MASVS and roll up to GDPR, KVKK, ISO 27001 and NIST, each traceable from the headline risk down to the proof, which is the documentation a school, ministry or institutional review expects.
Do you cover assessment and exam-integrity exposure?
Yes. Mobexa assesses tamper and repackaging exposure and how much the app trusts the client, which is what keeps assessment manipulation and credential abuse harder, and reports where those defenses hold and where they do not.
Bring one learning app; leave with the evidence.
We will test a build, map findings to the duties you answer to, and show the deployment that keeps student data inside your perimeter.
