Embodiment Construction

[0060] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiment:

[0061] A kind of Android malicious software detection method based on XGBoost machine learning algorithm described in the present embodiment, specific content is as follows:

[0062] XGBoost (eXtreme Gradient Boosting) is an integrated learning algorithm proposed by Tian Chen in 2015. In the XGBoost integrated learning framework, the main parameters that directly affect its classification performance are the parameter shrinkage (shrinkage) and the minimum sample weight threshold in the child nodes. (min_child_weight). Too small shrinkage will lead to overfitting of the algorithm, and larger shrinkage will cause the algorithm to fail to converge. For min_child_weight, too small will lead to overfitting of the algorithm, and too large mini_child_weight will lead to the classification performance of the algorithm for linearly inseparable data.

[0063] Therefore, in this embod...

Abstract

The invention relates to an Android malware detection method based on XGBoost machine learning algorithm. The method includes: extracting Permission Intent, Component and API call feature by decompiling the apk file, and composing a feature matrix quantitatively; using the parallelism and strong robustness of ant colony algorithm, optimizing the parameters of XGBoost classifier to obtain the optimal target and the optimal parameter combination of XGBoost. Compared with the traditional XGBoost algorithm, the improved XGBoost machine learning algorithm proposed by the invention, has higher classification accuracy during Android malware detection, improves the accuracy of malware detection, and reduces the probability of Android system attack due to detection errors.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of malware detection on an Android platform, in particular to an Android malware detection method based on an XGBoost machine learning algorithm. Background technique [0002] The Android system was officially released by Google on November 5, 2007. As an operating system based on the Linux kernel, its open source and free features make the Android system become the smart mobile device operating system with the largest market share at an extremely fast speed. system. However, while it is popular among App developers and users, it has also become the preferred target of malicious attackers. The rapid growth of Android malware has posed a serious threat to users' security and privacy. Malware steals users' private data, causing property losses, and exploiting system loopholes to obtain higher permissions and achieve greater harm. With the continuous advancement of the mobile payment industry, the Internet + ...
