Abstract - Malicious software that has the potential to infect a single computer or an entire company's network is referred to as malware. One of the most serious threats to online safety at the moment is malware and viruses. Given how quickly the amount of malware is growing, there is a severe threat to global security. All modern malware applications have a tendency to include multiple polymorphic layers or side mechanisms that automatically update themselves at regular intervals in order to avoid detection by any antivirus software and avoid detection for longer periods of time. We provide a modular framework that enables the use of several machine learning techniques, such as decision-tree [1], It has become the hardest job for security vendors to disguise a program as malware. Android malware has advanced to the point where it is increasingly resistant to common detection methods in terms of intelligence and cognition. Machine learning-based strategies have become a significantly more effective technique to deal with the complexity and uniqueness of emerging Android threats. They work by first identifying current malware activity patterns, then using this data to differentiate between known risks and unknown threats [2].
