Android Malware Detection Using Library API Call Tracing and Semantic-Preserving Signal Processing Techniques
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose to develop a new malware detection mechanism for Android-based mobile devices based upon library API call tracing and signal processing techniques. By tracing and utilizing library API calls we can capture the intentions/behaviors of an application at a higher level. Also, signal processing techniques, such as a wavelet-based transformation, may have the advantage of enhanced flexibility, effective malware detection, reduced runtime overhead, and capability to detect hidden intrusive patterns compared to the other pattern classification techniques, and may enhance the detection capability even for evolving and varying malwares. A dynamic approach will be developed and investigated in this project.

Examining Features for Android Malware Detection
With the constantly increasing use of mobile devices, the need for effective malware detection algorithms is constantly growing. The research presented in this paper expands upon previous work that applied machine learning techniques to the area of Android malware detection by examining Java API call data as a method for malware detection. In addition to examining a new feature, a significant a...
متن کاملDroidCat: Unified Dynamic Detection of Android Malware
Various dynamic approaches have been developed to detect or categorize Android malware. These approaches execute software, collect call traces, and then detect abnormal system calls or sensitive API usage. Consequently, attackers can evade these approaches by intentionally obfuscating those calls under focus. Additionally, existing approaches treat detection and categorization of malware as sep...

Malware analysis and detection has become a prime research area in the case of smartphones, particularly based on android due to its widespread usage and increase in the number of malwares involving huge monetary gains. The exploding number of Android malware calls for automated analysis of the systems. There are two common techniques used for detecting malware, signature based and behaviour ba...
متن کاملMaMaDroid: Detecting Android Malware by Building Markov Chains of Behavioral Models (Extended Version)
As Android becomes increasingly popular, so does malware targeting it, this motivating the research community to propose many different detection techniques. However, the constant evolution of the Android ecosystem, and of malware itself, makes it hard to design robust tools that can operate for long periods of time without the need for modifications or costly re-training. Aiming to address thi...
متن کاملIntroLib: Efficient and transparent library call introspection for malware forensics
Dynamic malware analysis aims at revealing malware’s runtime behavior. To evade analysis, advanced malware is able to detect the underlying analysis tool (e.g., one based on emulation.) On the other hand, existing malware-transparent analysis tools incur significant performance overhead, making them unsuitable for live malware monitoring and forensics. In this paper, we present IntroLib, a prac...
