Abstract

In recent years, Android became the first target for hackers and malware developers due to its inefficient permission model. In this article, the authors introduce a tool called PerUpSecure to manage permissions requested by Android applications, calculate the risk rates, and display the results to the user in order to help him to make a better decision. Thanks to our PerUpSecure, the user will be able to install only the trusted applications. As far as the authors know, the other existing tools focus only on measuring app risk after being installed and not before as this tool does. Therefore, to evaluate the tool, they selected two different applications sets. The results show that the tool can produce the most trustworthy risk rate to prevent and detect potential malicious activities performed by malware.
