Avast stays several paces ahead of cybercriminals with apklab.io.
At Avast, we firmly believe that everyone deserves a safe and secure online experience. That’s why we dedicate every day to understanding and defeating the bad actors who spread threats, violate privacy, and take advantage of the online community. Much like counterintelligence is an essential wartime tactic, we use threat intelligence to get a good picture of what the other side is doing and to stay a few steps ahead of them. Our newest tool is this arsenal is apklab.io, an AI-based analysis platform.
What is apklab.io?
APKLAB.io is a mobile threat intelligence platform (MTIP) designed to provide the most relevant information for Android™ security researchers. At Avast, we collect big data on the most current cyberthreats today with our network of hundreds of millions of sensors around the globe. We use this big data as the reference point for our MTIP apklab.io.
We developed reliable and fast automatic classifiers that examine every strain of malware, categorizing like with like, and creating a more complete picture of each particular malware family (all its variants, etc.). We’ve also built into the platform coherent analyses of both static and dynamic flow, meaning our MTIP also studies the behavior of every malware strain while it’s dormant as well as active.
