Popis: In field of mobile security android malware is well known as a problematic never can finally solved despite of many solutions that have been proposed over time by researchers because of revolution and development of attackers techniques used in codes of their malwares that override anti-malwares and malware detection techniques by hiding the real behavior of malware when it is getting to scan moreover by obfuscating the source code of this last which make it difficult for researchers to view the source code of malicious application in order to analyze the element of this last and required features by it. The revolution of this malicious techniques make the solution proposed even using newest technologies of machine learning and reverse engineering get more limited over time in detecting malwares especially new released ones. For this reason the main objective of researchers in this field is to find a new solutions that can bear with this revolution. In this paper we proposed an approach based on clustering android applications into malware or benign using permissions as features in order to detect malwares in android applications by the application of filter feature selection algorithms to select features and k-Mean machine learning algorithm for clustering purpose.
