Abstract |
|
with the increased use of Android smartphones, the amount and variety of android malware is growing rapidly. Being the most popular platform, open source system and its vulnerable architecture, Android has been the most targeted platform for malware attacks. Most mobile malware is designed to steal users' money, including SMS-Trojans, and lots of backdoors and Trojans. In this paper, we have explored android malware, and analyzed PCA and permission-combination based scheme. We found that PCA based method works efficiently to detect unknown malware in comparison to permission-combination based method. However, neither of these permission based methods can detect colluding attack in which one application communicates with other application by creating overt and covert channel. The findings of the review have been well documented in this paper. |
