Design of a mobile inspector for detecting illegal Android applications using fingerprinting

As the use of smart devices based on the Android platform has increased, the market scale of Android Apps has grown. While smart devices such as smart phones, tablet PCs, vehicle devices, and home appliances are widely used, the Apps installed on the devices may have institutional and technical problems in terms of their copyright protection. For this reason, the use of illegal Apps is rapidly increasing. In this paper, we propose a scheme for detecting illegal Apps and pursuing illegal App distributors using fingerprinting on various smart devices based on the Android platform. In addition, we propose a scheme for various Android platforms without the need for a cable connection.
