UDcide is a tool that provides alternative way to deal with Android malware. We help you to detect and remove specific behaviors in the malware rather than just delete the whole binary. And surprisingly, we make the binary runs still. This enables possibilities of malware investigation (e.g. Delete behaviors like VM detection, icon hiding etc. Helping analysts overcome malware evasion problems during the analysis).
We also provide a VScode extension to use UDcide, download from Marketplace and see the usage below.
(Ctrl + Shift + P)to open command palette ->UDcide: Android Malware Behavior Deleter-> Choose an APK file
- Select behaviors to disable -> Click
Rebuild
