Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Smart phones are rapidly becoming a fixture of modern day life. Their popularity and market penetration have given rise to a flourishing ecosystem of mobile apps that provide users with a wide range of useful functionality. Android users may download apps from Google's official Android Market or from a number of third-party markets. To ensure a healthy mobile app environment, users should have access to high quality apps and developers should be financially compensated for their efforts. However, apps may be copied, or "cloned," by a dishonest developer and released as her own, subverting revenue from the original developer or possibly including additional malicious functionality. I present two approaches to detect similar Android apps based on semantic information. I implement the first approach in a tool called DNADroid which robustly computes the similarity between two apps by comparing program dependency graphs between methods in candidiate apps. The second approach, implemented in a tool called AnDarwin, is capable of detecting similar apps on an unprecedented scale. In contrast to earlier approaches, AnDarwin has four advantages: it avoids comparing apps pairwise, thus greatly improving its scalability; it analyzes only the app code and does not rely on other information -- such as the app's market, signature, or description -- thus greatly increasing its reliability; it can detect both full and partial app similarity; and it can automatically detect library code and remove it from the similarity analysis. I evaluate DNADroid and AnDarwin on many Android apps crawled from multiple Android markets including the official Android Market. My evaluation demonstrates these tools' ability to accurately detect similar apps. Finally, I show how DNADroid and AnDarwin can be used in conjunction with other tools to gain insights into the app ecosystem such as the prevelance of malware families that commit ad fraud.

Download or read book Android Malware Detection using Machine Learning written by ElMouatez Billah Karbab and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-07-10 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors develop a malware fingerprinting framework to cover accurate android malware detection and family attribution in this book. The authors emphasize the following: (1) the scalability over a large malware corpus; (2) the resiliency to common obfuscation techniques; (3) the portability over different platforms and architectures. First, the authors propose an approximate fingerprinting technique for android packaging that captures the underlying static structure of the android applications in the context of bulk and offline detection at the app-market level. This book proposes a malware clustering framework to perform malware clustering by building and partitioning the similarity network of malicious applications on top of this fingerprinting technique. Second, the authors propose an approximate fingerprinting technique that leverages dynamic analysis and natural language processing techniques to generate Android malware behavior reports. Based on this fingerprinting technique, the authors propose a portable malware detection framework employing machine learning classification. Third, the authors design an automatic framework to produce intelligence about the underlying malicious cyber-infrastructures of Android malware. The authors then leverage graph analysis techniques to generate relevant intelligence to identify the threat effects of malicious Internet activity associated with android malware. The authors elaborate on an effective android malware detection system, in the online detection context at the mobile device level. It is suitable for deployment on mobile devices, using machine learning classification on method call sequences. Also, it is resilient to common code obfuscation techniques and adaptive to operating systems and malware change overtime, using natural language processing and deep learning techniques. Researchers working in mobile and network security, machine learning and pattern recognition will find this book useful as a reference. Advanced-level students studying computer science within these topic areas will purchase this book as well.
