A curated collection of over 300 live Android malware samples gathered from multiple sources and mailing lists. It serves as a research dataset for malware analysis and detection studies, cited in 50+ academic papers.
Use cases
- download android malware samples for research
- build a machine learning malware detection model
- analyze android malware behavior in a sandbox
- train and benchmark mobile malware classifiers
- study android malware families and variants
- security research dataset for mobile threats
When to choose
- you need real Android malware samples for detection research or ML training
- you want a large, community-maintained, academically cited sample collection
When to avoid
- you need production security tooling rather than raw samples
- you cannot handle live malware safely in an isolated environment
- you need a licensed, formally maintained dataset (no license is provided)
