Abstract: Mobile devices have evolved from simple devices, which are used for a phone call and SMS messages to smartphone devices that can run third party applications. Nowadays, malicious software, which is also known as malware, imposes a larger threat to these mobile devices. Recently, many news items were posted about the increase of the Android malware.

In addition, it evaluates the most popular existing anti-virus software to see if these 104 malware could be detected.
