Abstract

Why should everyone know about mobile malware? With the introduction of Internet of Things (IoT) and Cloud, you can't survive in a disconnected world. Thus from your home appliances to your window curtains, everything is connected to Internet which can be accessed through your hand held mobile device. Unlike Personal Computers, these devices give Hackers a greater attack landscape. Back in 2004, when the first mobile malware was introduced, we never thought that it would get such a big threat space, as we see today. So, we discuss the History of Mobile malwares and its categories with its motives. We also discuss few signs that indicate the presence of a mobile malware. To conclude we categorize the battle against malware into two namely prevention and response, which is forensically analysed using Static/Dynamic Methods/Tools.
