Overview

Explore a sophisticated technique for concealing malicious payloads within Android packages (APKs) in this Black Hat conference talk. Learn how malware authors can encrypt their payloads using AES and manipulate the output to resemble genuine images, making detection and reverse engineering extremely challenging. Discover the intricacies of this method through a proof-of-concept application, demonstrating its effectiveness on current Android platforms. Gain insights into file formats and their manipulation, rather than focusing on cryptography, to understand how this deceptive approach works and how payloads are crafted to evade detection.
