With the development in the field of smartphones and ever growing base of Internet, various softwares are left prone to many malicious activities like pharming, phishing, ransomware, spam, spoofing, spyware, eavesdropping, etc. These threats have not spared the smartphones which are equally prone to them. In this work, we aim to detect these malwares with accuracy and efficiency. This being essentially a classification problem, we use various machine learning methods for this task. We observe that across models, Attention based Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), or broadly speaking, Deep Learning, are most suitable for this problem. Attention based ANNs are an amalgamation of accuracy and efficiency, the crux of our work. The accuracy achieved by our model is around 96.75%. Our model runs the test on Android Package Files (APKs) to determine whether a particular application is malicious or not by doing behavior analysis on android application under consideration.
