Abstract: Most Android users are unaware that their smartphones are as vulnerable as any computer, and that permission by Android users is an important part of maintaining the security of Android smartphones. We present a method that uses manifest files to determine the presence of spyware and the security level of apps. Furthermore, to ensure that no leaked data occurs in Android smartphones, we propose new method for the encryption of data from Google Suite applications.
