Proposing an Android Malware Architecture

In the modern era, digital media and devices have become an indispensable part of human life. Digital media and devices have made life easier for humans, but they have also introduced certain vulnerabilities. In recent years, there has been a dramatic increase in the use of smartphones. These devices have not only become more popular but also more sophisticated. The concepts of espionage and war used to have physical manifestations and required direct human involvement, yet the new concepts of cyber warfare and cyber espionage target the security of personal information. Smartphones contain a substantial amount of personal information, leading to the increasing number of malware programs being developed for mobile platforms. The Statista published a report on the global distribution of mobile operating systems in 7102 , in which Android was the dominant operating system with a %68 share of the market, showing just how important Android and its malware programs are [4]. The present paper introduces Android malware programs and their history, followed by the classification of these programs, and the proposed countermeasures to neutralize them. It is concluded by proposing an architecture for Android malware.
