Abstract

The paper would talk about the evolution of malware in android and then it would delve into discuss about the different types of activities/infections done by the malwares. In a technical aspect the talk would present the lab setup, tools required and the reversing of the apk files in order to do malware analysis. The steps that would be covered includes unpacking the apk followed by decompilation of the dalvik executable to java code. Covering the basic reversing of the java code and patching/modifying the code, how can we compile the code and pack it back to an apk. How the android malware analysis is different from windows malware analysis.

The presentation includes a live demo of a malware. To relate my talk to the title of the presentation I would say the demo of android malware analysis that I would present is a specific one. While reversing that we get to know of a premium phone number to which the infected phone sends sms,hence I have you(your number). Also, if you reverse the malware and change the sms number to your number, that is how I own the malware.
