Taming Web Views In The Detection Of Android Privacy Leaks

ABSTRACT

Billions of smartphone users force both technical and non-technical facilities to publish their applications in market. One of the easiest ways to create an application for non-techies is by transferring their existing website using WebView. Current approaches for privacy policy analysis are mainly focused on APIs and predefined user interfaces and cannot cover these type of information. In this paper, we proposed a novel solution to trace the input data that is collected from WebView.
