I. Introduction
The Android operating system remains one the most popular operating systems for malware. This is due to many factors; the Android operating system has the highest market share as compared to any other mobile operating system with a total market share of 65.7 percent as of September 2019 [1]. Moreover, unlike any other mobile operating systems such as iOS, Android also allows users to install unverified applications from third-party app stores and websites. Consequently, Android devices become more vulnerable to malicious attacks as its permission-based security architecture has already been proven to be ineffective for the security of the average user [2]. While Third-party app stores remain a source of malware, it has been observed that Google app store is also vulnerable to malware being by passed. In many cases malware applications have evaded Bouncer, an application verification tool for the Google Play Market[3]. Due to these contributing factors, the quantity and sophistication of malware has prevailed in recent years with a two-fold increase in malicious samples in last two years [4].
