Machine Learning The Easiest Way To Detect Malware In Android OS

With handheld technology growing at an exponential rate, almost every advancement in the digital world gets more attention than ever. This can largely be credited to the ever-growing mobile phone ecosystem. As of now, there are over two billion mobile phone devices across the world (including feature phones and tablet devices). When it comes to the operating system (OS) or software that powers these smartphones, Google's Android has clearly emerged as the winner in the ecosystem, as compared to Apple's iOS or Microsoft's Windows Phone, with a lion's share of 80 percent. This success and popularity can be attributed to the ease at which Android offers developers to build applications and its open-source availability.
