Recently, mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets have emerged as one of the most popular forms of communication. This trend raises the question about the security of the private data and communication of the people using those devices. With increased computational resources and versatility the number of security threats on such devices is growing rapidly. Therefore, it is vital for security specialists to find adequate anti-measures against the threats. Machine Learning approaches with their ability to learn from and adapt to their environments provide a promising approach to modelling and protecting against security threats on mobile devices. This paper presents a comparative study and implementation of Decision Trees and Neural Network models for the detection of port scanning showing the differences between the responses on a desktop platform and a mobile device and the ability of the Neural Network model to adapt to the different environment and computational resource available on a mobile platform.
