Abstract The prevalence of smartphones is deeply embedded in modern society, impacting various aspects of our lives. Their versatility and functionalities have fundamentally changed how we communicate, work, seek entertainment, and access information. Among the many smartphones available, those operating on the Android platform dominate, being the most widely used type. This widespread adoption of the Android OS has significantly contributed to increased malware attacks targeting the Android ecosystem in recent years. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop new methods for detecting Android malware. The literature contains numerous works related to Android malware detection. As far as our understanding… More >

Abstract Android devices are popularly available in the commercial market at different price levels for various levels of customers. The Android stack is more vulnerable compared to other platforms because of its open-source nature. There are many android malware detection techniques available to exploit the source code and find associated components during execution time. To obtain a better result we create a hybrid technique merging static and dynamic processes. In this paper, in the first part, we have proposed a technique to check for correlation between features and classify using a supervised learning approach to avoid Multicollinearity problem is one of… More >

Abstract Smartphone devices particularly Android devices are in use by billions of people everywhere in the world. Similarly, this increasing rate attracts mobile botnet attacks which is a network of interconnected nodes operated through the command and control (C&C) method to expand malicious activities. At present, mobile botnet attacks launched the Distributed denial of services (DDoS) that causes to steal of sensitive data, remote access, and spam generation, etc. Consequently, various approaches are defined in the literature to detect mobile botnet attacks using static or dynamic analysis. In this paper, a novel hybrid model, the combination of static and dynamic methods… More >
