| dc.description.abstract | The number of Android malware variants (clones) are on the rise and, to stop this attack of clones we need to develop new methods and techniques for analysing and detecting them. As a first step, we need to study how these malware clones are generated. This will help us better anticipate and recognize these clones. In this paper we present a new tool named DroidMorph, that provides morphing of Android applications (APKs) at different level of abstractions, and can be used to create Android application (malware/benign) clones. As a case study we perform testing and evaluating resilience of current commercial anti-malware products against attack of the Android malware clones generated by DroidMorph. We found that 8 out of 17 leading commercial anti-malware programs were not able to detect any of the morphed APKs. We hope that DroidMorph will be used in future research, to improve Android malware clones analysis and detection, and help stop them. © 2018 IEEE. | |
