Abstract

A dynamic security mechanism for Android-powered devices based on runtime verification is introduced, which lets users monitor the behaviour of installed applications. The general idea and a prototypical implementation are outlined, an application to real-world security threats shown, and the underlying logical foundations, relating to the employed specification formalism, sketched.
