Google Android framework consists of an operating system and software platform for mobile devices. Using a general-purpose Linux operating system in mobile device has some advantages but also security risks. Security-Enhanced Linux (SELinux) is a kernel-based protection approach which can help to reduce potential damage from successful attacks. However, there are some challenges to integrate SELinux in Android. In this research, we do a study on how to do the integration and find out four challenges. The first one is that the Android file system (yaff2) does not support security namespace for extended attribute (xattr) which is required by SELinux. The second one is that it's difficult to apply SELinux policy to Dalvik process on which an Android application runs on. The third one is that Android lacks methods, tools and libraries to interact with SELinux. The last one is how to update the SELinux policy automatically when installing or removing an application. In this paper, we propose solutions for the above limitations that make the SELinux more adaptive and suitable for Android framework.

Based on the case study methods, the study analyzes emergence and ensuing typology of global ebook platforms such as Google eBook, Amazon Kindle, iBooks Store. Global ebook platforms show adaptation process responding to rapidly changing digital technological envirment and it's fitness landscape. The critical elements in its emerging process are the distinct selection criteria, the degree of resource abundance and the search process based on open innovation. Based on these critical elements, the global platforms show speciation process, so called niche creation and are evolving into a variety of the typology based on the initial condition of key resource which makes the platform emerge and grow. Each global ebook platforms is evolving into open platform, hybrid platform, closed platform. Google eBook has openness and extensibility due to a variety of devices based on Android and a direct involvement of actors. Amazon Kindle has developed from a online bookstore and into the hybrid platform which have not only closed quality but also openness with ebook devices and mobile network. iBooks Store has developed into the closed platform through the agency model based on competitive hardwares and closed quality with iphone and ipad.

Android that was made by Google and Open Handset Alliance is the open source software toolkit for mobile phone. In a few years, Android will be used by millions of Android mobile phones and other mobile devices, and become the main platform for application developers. In this paper, the integrated login application based on Google's Android platform is developed. The main features of the mobile combination login application content based on Android are as follows. First, the application has more convenient login functionality than the functionality of general web browser as the web browser of the mobile-based applications(web browser style applications) as well as security features and faster screen(view) capability by reducing the amount of data transfer. Second, the application is so useful for management of ID and Password, and it can easily manage multiple ID information such as message, mail, profile. The results of performance evaluation of the developed application show the functionality that can login many kinds of portal sites simultaneously as well as the ability that can maintain login continuously. Currently, we are trying to develope a couple of the technologies that can insert multiple accounts into one ID and check all information on one screen.

Android Things is an Android-based platform running in Google's IoT environment. Android smartphones require permissions from application users to use certain features, but in the case of Android Things, there is no display to send request notifications to users. Therefore Does not make a request to use the permissions and automatically accepts the permissions from the system. If the privilege is used indiscriminately, malicious behavior such as system failure or leakage of personal information can be performed by a function which is not related to the function originally. Therefore, By monitoring the privileges that a device uses in an Android-based IoT system, users can proactively respond to security threats that can arise through unauthorized use of the IoT system. This paper proposes a system that manages the rights currently being used by IoT devices in the Android Things based IoT environment, so that Android-based IoT devices can cope with irrelevant use of rights.

Android platform is designed to be user-friendly, yet sometimes its convenience introduces vulnerabilities that normal users cannot justify. In this paper, after making an overview of popular open source analysis tools for android applications, we point out the dangerous use of Permission Group in current Google Policy, and suggest a technique to mitigate the risks of privilege escalation that attackers are taking advantage of. By conducting the investigation of 21,064 malware samples, we conclude that the proposed technique is considered effective in detecting insecure application update, as well as giving users the heads-up in security awareness.

The existing smart-phone software is dependent on the platform, which should be developed per each different platform, Each vendor will develop its own platform such as Apple's Cocoa platform, Google Android, Microsoft Windows Mobile, etc. In this paper, we apply model transformation technique for developing heterogenous software at a time in heterogenous smart phone area. This approach separates the independent model and dependent model. and automatically transforms the difference between them with model transformation language. To execute model transformation, it is required with meta model, model transformation language. In this paper, we are applied to smart-phones as follows: model will be UMLmodel, metamodel be UML metamodel, and choose ATL as Model transformation language. We show examples of the Windows Mobile platform environment to be developed using model transformation. As a result, if we use platform-independent model in this paper and redefine model transformation rules for the iPhone or Android, it will be automatically transformed into heterogenous platforms.

Google Android, which is one of the popular smart phone platforms, employs a security model based on application permissions. This model intends to reduce security threats by protecting inappropriate accesses to system resources from applications, but this model has a few problems. First, permission requested by an application cannot be granted selectively. Second, once the permission has been granted it is maintained until the application is uninstalled. Third, applications may acquire powerful permissions through user ID sharing without any notice to users. In order to overcome these limitations, we designed and implemented a flexible application permission management scheme. The goal of our scheme is to enhance security and user convenience while keeping compatibility to original platform. We also verified the operation of our scheme with real applications on Android emulator.
