An analysis of the technologies used by cybercriminals allows us to draw conclusions about the virus industry’s possible vectors of development and more effectively confront future threats. You, too, can learn what actions various malicious programs take in infected systems and how to withstand them.
Tool.Obfuscapk is a detection name for Android applications protected with the Obfuscapk obfuscation tool. This tool is not malicious itself. Its main purpose is to protect apps from the reverse engineering and unauthorized modification. Apart from legal usage, however, it can also be used to protect trojans, adware and unwanted apps to make anti-virus software detection algorithms less effective.
The tool allows obfuscation of ready-to-use applications and does not require their source code. Instead, it decompiles the apps, obfuscates the resulting code and compiles it into the modified version of the same apps. Herewith, it has a modular construction and allows to use plug-ins with various obfuscation algorithms.
According to statistics, every fifth program for Android contains a vulnerability (or, in other words, a "loophole") that lets cybercriminals successfully introduce Trojans onto mobile devices and manipulate them into doing whatever actions they need them to.
Dr.Web Security Auditor for Android diagnoses and analyses a mobile device’s security and offers solutions to address security problems and vulnerabilities.
