초록

안드로이드 운영체제의 보안체계는 샌드박스와 권한모델을 적용하고 있다. 특히 권한모델은 설치시점 확인과 all-or-nothing 정책을 운영하고 있기 때문에 안드로이드는 앱을 설치할 때 필요한 권한에 대해 사용자 동의를 요구하고 있다. 하지만 안드로이드 권한에 대한 사용자의 인식은 부족한 상황이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 실제 모바일 앱을 대상으로 권한요구 실태를 조사하고 금융회사를 중심으로 모바일 서비스 제공자가 모바일 앱의 최소권한 정책에 위배되는 사항을 자체점검하고자 할 때 활용가능한 중점 점검항목과 방법을 제시하고 그 유용성에 대해 알아보고자 한다.

A security system in Android OS adopts sandbox and an permission model. In particular, the permission model operates the confirmation of installation time and all-or-nothing policy. Accordingly, the Android OS requires a user agreement for permission when installing an application, however there is very low level of user awareness for the permission. In this paper, the current status of permission requirement within mobile apps will be discovered, and the key inspection list with an appropriate method, when a mobile service provider autonomously inspects the violation of least privilege around financial companies, and its usefulness will be explored.
