Android malware detection is a critical step towards building a security credible system. Especially, manual search for the potential malicious code has plagued program analysts for a long time. In this paper, we propose Droidetec, a deep learning based method for android malware detection and malicious code localization, to model an application program as a natural language sequence. Droidetec adopts a novel feature extraction method to derive behavior sequences from Android applications. Based on that, the bi-directional Long Short Term Memory network is utilized for malware detection. Each unit in the extracted behavior sequence is inventively represented as a vector, which allows Droidetec to automatically analyze the semantics of sequence segments and eventually find out the malicious code. Experiments with 9616 malicious and 11982 benign programs show that Droidetec reaches an accuracy of 97.22% and an F1-score of 98.21%. In all, Droidetec has a hit rate of 91% to properly find out malicious code segments.

According to the Symantec and F-Secure threat reports, mobile malware development in 2013 and 2014 has continued to focus almost exclusively ~99% on the Android platform. Malware writers are applying stealthy mutations (obfuscations) to create malwar
e variants, thwarting detection by signature based detectors. In addition, the plethora of more sophisticated detectors making use of static analysis techniques to detect such variants operate only at the bytecode level, meaning that malware embedded in native code goes undetected. A recent study shows that 86% of the most popular Android applications contain native code, making this a plausible threat. This paper proposes DroidNative, an Android malware detector that uses specific control flow patterns to reduce the effect of obfuscations, provides automation and platform independence, and as far as we know is the first system that operates at the Android native code level, allowing it to detect malware embedded in both native code and bytecode. When tested with traditional malware variants it achieves a detection rate (DR) of 99.48%, compared to academic and commercial tools DRs that range from 8.33% -- 93.22%. When tested with a dataset of 2240 samples DroidNative achieves a DR of 99.16%, a false positive rate of 0.4% and an average detection time of 26.87 sec/sample.
Android is undergoing unprecedented malicious threats daily, but the existing methods for malware detection often fail to cope with evolving camouflage in malware. To address this issue, we present HAWK, a new malware detection framework for evolutio
nary Android applications. We model Android entities and behavioural relationships as a heterogeneous information network (HIN), exploiting its rich semantic metastructures for specifying implicit higher-order relationships. An incremental learning model is created to handle the applications that manifest dynamically, without the need for re-constructing the whole HIN and the subsequent embedding model. The model can pinpoint rapidly the proximity between a new application and existing in-sample applications and aggregate their numerical embeddings under various semantics. Our experiments examine more than 80,860 malicious and 100,375 benign applications developed over a period of seven years, showing that HAWK achieves the highest detection accuracy against baselines and takes only 3.5ms on average to detect an out-of-sample application, with the accelerated training time of 50x faster than the existing approach.
With the growth of mobile devices and applications, the number of malicious software, or malware, is rapidly increasing in recent years, which calls for the development of advanced and effective malware detection approaches. Traditional methods such
as signature-based ones cannot defend users from an increasing number of new types of malware or rapid malware behavior changes. In this paper, we propose a new Android malware detection approach based on deep learning and static analysis. Instead of using Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) only, we further analyze the source code of Android applications and create their higher-level graphical semantics, which makes it harder for attackers to evade detection. In particular, we use a call graph from method invocations in an Android application to represent the application, and further analyze method attributes to form a structured Program Representation Graph (PRG) with node attributes. Then, we use a graph convolutional network (GCN) to yield a graph representation of the application by embedding the entire graph into a dense vector, and classify whether it is a malware or not. To efficiently train such a graph convolutional network, we propose a batch training scheme that allows multiple heterogeneous graphs to be input as a batch. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work to use graph representation learning for malware detection. We conduct extensive experiments from real-world sample collections and demonstrate that our developed system outperforms multiple other existing malware detection techniques.
Android malware has been on the rise in recent years due to the increasing popularity of Android and the proliferation of third party application markets. Emerging Android malware families are increasingly adopting sophisticated detection avoidance t
echniques and this calls for more effective approaches for Android malware detection. Hence, in this paper we present and evaluate an n-gram opcode features based approach that utilizes machine learning to identify and categorize Android malware. This approach enables automated feature discovery without relying on prior expert or domain knowledge for pre-determined features. Furthermore, by using a data segmentation technique for feature selection, our analysis is able to scale up to 10-gram opcodes. Our experiments on a dataset of 2520 samples showed an f-measure of 98% using the n-gram opcode based approach. We also provide empirical findings that illustrate factors that have probable impact on the overall n-gram opcodes performance trends.
We present BPFroid -- a novel dynamic analysis framework for Android that uses the eBPF technology of the Linux kernel to continuously monitor events of user applications running on a real device. The monitored events are collected from different com
ponents of the Android software stack: internal kernel functions, system calls, native library functions, and the Java API framework. As BPFroid hooks these events in the kernel, a malware is unable to trivially bypass monitoring. Moreover, using eBPF doesnt require any change to the Android system or the monitored applications. We also present an analytical comparison of BPFroid to other malware detection methods and demonstrate its usage by developing novel signatures to detect suspicious behavior that are based on it. These signatures are then evaluated using real apps. We also demonstrate how BPFroid can be used to capture forensic artifacts for further investigation. Our results show that BPFroid successfully alerts in real time when a suspicious behavioral signature is detected, without incurring a significant runtime performance overhead.
