Outline of Final Research Achievements

Nowadays, considerable part of malicious smartphone applications are distributed in marketplaces globally. Such applications leaks users’ privacy (e.g. mail text, location) to outside of terminal. First, I developed a method to embed the code to perform API call logging mechanism into smartphone framework. This framework logs are recorded when some applications are running in the smartphone. Based on these application execution logs, I analyzed them and extracted the group of malicious applications with machine learning technique. Furthermore, I developed the method to analyze the behavior of advertising libraries linked with smartphone applications from these framework logs. In addition, I expected that all of smartphone platforms equip web browser and it is utilized as application execution foundation in smartphone. On that premise, I developed the digital forensics method to extract and analyze the information stored in web browser from without legitimate web programming interface.
