Android malware has become prevalent across the landscape. In this workshop, Vitor will provide hands-on reverse engineering techniques for Android malware. This workshop is designed to provide the participants with different approaches to malware analysis, so that they can perform their own analysis without the use of automated tools. When everything else fails, knowing how the tools work under the hood provides the necessary knowledge to bypass the problems encountered. The attendees will learn, by doing it themselves, how to bypass the most common techniques used by malware to prevent analysis. The objective is that the attendees understand how they can use techniques like instrumentation and patching to help them analyze and bypass malware defenses when the automated tools fail, while using only free and open source tools.
