- Abstract
- The use of Android platform based mobile terminals has been growing high. On the down side, the number of attacks by malicious application is also increasing because Android platform is vulnerable to private information leakage. These malicious applications are easily distributed to users through open market or internet. An attacker inserts malicious code into mobile app which could be harmful tool to steal private data. To cope with security threats more actively, it is necessary to develop countermeasure system that enables to detect security vulnerability existing in mobile terminal and take an appropriate action to protect the system against malicious attacks. Therefore, this paper investigates security-related vulnerability for mobile terminal and suggests 'DroidVulMon' system to detect and respond attacks in order to prevent information leakage caused by malicious app. © 2013 IEEE.
