Android operating system always occupies the highest market share in mobile operating systems. Security analysis on Android operating systems often focuses on analyzing applications (APK files) when installed on the phone. There are few studies analyzing Android firmware, especially customized Android firmware. In this study, we propose a model to analyze Android firmware using a distribution model. The proposed system can be deployed on a distributed network system, which allows for multiple Android firmware analysis requests at the same time. Experimental results show that the performance of the proposed system is better than the single node model. Besides, we also discovered many malware in preinstalled applications in custom Android firmware in the wild.

The diverse landscape of network models, including Software-Defined Networking (SDN), Cloud Computing (C2), and Internet of Things (IoT), is evolving to meet the demands of flexibility and performance. However, these environments face numerous security challenges due to cyber-attack complexity. Traditional defense mechanisms are no longer effective against modern attacks. Therefore,...
As data driven-based Windows malware detectors become increasingly prevalent, the need for robust evaluation and enhancement of adversarial malware generation techniques also becomes imperative, as malicious actors will adapt and enhance their malware to evade detection. There are numerous works that introduce new techniques or enhancements for adversarial malware. One...
The abuse of prescription medications has become a severe public health crisis fueled by limited coordination and oversight across healthcare systems. Current frameworks lack interoperability between doctors, pharmacies, and regulators, enabling abusive practices like doctor shopping and pharmacy hopping. To address these issues, this research proposes Medichain, a novel multichain-based...
