Abstract

The number of malicious mobile and android based application targeting Android users and their smartphones has increase at a fast rate. In addition, these malicious harms causing application are powerful enough to download modules from remote servers which are usually run by malicious infectors, due to which unexpected events can be triggered inside the smartphones. Then, the attacker gets control and hold on the per-sonal and private information and data which is stored within the person’s smartphone illegally.
