Recurrent Neural Network and Multi-Factor Feature Filtering for Ransomware Detection in Android Apps
Journal Title: International Journal of Innovations in Science and Technology - Year 2024, Vol 6, Issue 3
Abstract
The market is flooded with Android Software (apps), and at the same time that number is growing quickly, and so are the many security exploits that take advantage of such apps. The effectiveness of traditional defensive systems is at risk due to the growing diversity of Android malware. This situation has sparked significant interest in improving malware detection accuracy and scalability for smart devices. By examining the Long ShortTerm Memory (LSTM) method, we have developed an effective deep learning-based malware detection model for enhanced Android ransomware detection. For feature selection, eight different methods were applied. By comparing the outcomes of all feature selection procedures, we used a simple majority vote process to choose the 19 crucial characteristics. The Android Malware dataset (CI-CAndMal2017) and common performance metrics were used to assess the proposed technique. With a detection accuracy of 97.08%, our model surpasses existing approaches. We advocate our proposed method as effective in malware and forensic analysis based on its remarkable performance.
