Stefan Ilić, Slavica Dukic · 2016
In this paper we analyzed how different methods of protection, namely class encryption and usage of native code, affect decompilation of Android applications. This is important in consumer electronics as it can be used to stop repackaging and spreading of maliciously modified applications. We analyzed two different methods of protection, their benefits and flaws.
