Abstract

<p>Android has become the dominant operating system for portable devices, making it a valuable asset that needs protection. Though Android is very popular; it has several vulnerabilities which attackers use for malicious intents. In this paper, we present a comprehensive study on the threats in Android OS that various malware developers exploit and the different malware functionality based on Android&rsquo;s threats. Furthermore, we analyze and evaluate the anti-malware approaches implemented to face the malware functionalities. Finally, we analyze and categorize malware developers&rsquo; most common anti-analysis techniques to evade anti-malware approaches. It comes to our attention that many papers covered each topic separately; however, we could not find one comprehensive study that covers Android with such details that it could be used as a research handbook on Android malware. This is the main novelty and contribution of this work.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
