VirusTotal, the antivirus scanning engine owned by Google, has announced a new Android sandbox technology named Droidy. Droidy is a simulated Android OS environment meant for analyzing Android app behavior and producing reports for users and security researchers alike. The new Droidy sandbox will be able to provide additional information about a malware strain’s activities, such as network communications and SMS-related activity. The additional behavioral details should help security researchers confirm the malicious classification of VirusTotal scan results or, in some cases, overturn them.
