摘要

Nowadays,analysis methods based on big data have been widely used in malicious software detection.Since Android has become the dominator of smartphone operating system market,the number of Android malicious applications are increasing rapidly as well,which attracts attention of malware attackers and researchers alike.Due to the endless evolution of the malware,it is critical to apply the analysis methods based on machine learning to detect malwares and stop them from leakaging our privacy information.In this paper,we propose a novel Android malware detection method based on binary texture feature recognition by Local Binary Pattern and Principal Component Analysis,which can visualize malware and detect malware accurately.Also,our method analyzes malware binary directly without any decompiler,sandbox or virtual machines,which avoid time and resource consumption caused by decompiler or monitor in this process.Experimentation on 5127 benigns and 5560 malwares shows that we obtain a detection accuracy of 90%.
