Abstract: with the growth and development in mobile phone operating systems and hardware technologies now Security issue is an immense challenge. Presently, in the market among all the smart-phone operating systems android has the major share. As the features and powers of such phones increase, their vulnerability also increases and makes them prone towards security threats. Permission -based model used by Android operating system which allows Android applications to access system information, device information, user information and external resources of Smartphone. in Android, application developer has to declare the permissions. For an Android application to be installed successfully, the user must approve certain permissions.
