Abstract

With the popularity of Android smart phones everyone finds it convenient to make transactions through these smart phones. And the users of these smart phones, in most cases unaware of different types of threats. The purpose for this survey paper is to conduct a survey on users to get the information about the security vulnerabilities they are creating unknowingly, bringing forward some security frameworks for these threats & giving a basic knowledge to the new comer to the android about android OS architecture and the threats to this architecture.
