Abstract

A system and method for detecting malware on a limited access mobile platform in a mobile network. The system and method uses one or more feature sets that describe various non-executable portions of malware-infected and malware-free applications, and compares a application on the limited access mobile platform to the features sets. A match of the features in a suspect application to one of the feature sets provides an indication as to whether the suspect application is malware-infected or malware-free.
