Abstract
The proliferation of Android-based mobile devices and mobile applications in the market has triggered the malware author to make the mobile devices as the next profitable target. With user are now able to use mobile devices for various purposes such as web browsing, ubiquitous services, online banking, social networking, MMS and etc, more credential information is expose to exploitation. Applying a similar security solution that work in Desktop environment to mobile devices may not be proper as mobile devices have a limited storage, memory, CPU and power consumption. Hence, there is a need to develop a mobile malware detection that can provide an effective solution to defence the mobile user from any malicious threat and at the same time address the limitation of mobile devices environment. Prior to this matter, this research focused on evaluating the best features selection to be used in the best machine-learning classifiers. To find the best combination of both features selection and classifier, five sets of different feature selection are applies to five different machine learning classifiers. The classifier outcome is evaluated using the True Positive Rate (TPR), False Positive Rate (FPR), and Accuracy. The best combination of both features selection and classifier can be used to reduce features selection and at the same time able to classify the infected android application accurately.
