Abstract
Following the steady growth of the android mobile market, android application developers apply the obfuscation techniques to hide confidential information to be revealed and to prevent from abnormal approaches. Keeping up this trend, however, the obfuscation technique is also widely used in android malicious codes. Android malicious code developers apply the obfuscation techniques to hide their malignant act and evade anti-virus program, eventually making malicious code reversing engineers spend a lot of time and efforts and adding a huge amount of social cost for the analysis. Due to this reason, the de-obfuscation techniques is getting more and more required to solve this problem. In this paper, we research existing obfuscation and de-obfuscation techniques which currently are applied to the android applications, then suggest the de-obfuscation platform based on LLVM (Low-Level Virtual Machine) to perform de-obfuscation process more efficiently.
