© 2022 IEEE.In recent years, smart mobile devices have become indispensable due to the availability of office applications, the Internet, game applications, vehicle guidance or similar most of our daily lives applications in addition to traditional services such as voice calls, SMSs, and multimedia services. Due to Android's open source structure and easy development platforms, the number of applications on Google Play, the official Android app store increased day by day. This also brig some security related issues for the end users. The increased popularity of Android operating system on mobile devices, and the associated financial benefits attracted attackers for developing some malware for these devices, which results a significant increase in the number of Android malware applications. To detect this type of security threats, signature based detection (static detection) in generally preferred due to its easy applicability and fast identification ability. Therefore in this study it is aimed to implement an up-to-date, effective, and reliable malware detection system with the help of some deep learning algorithms. In the proposed system, RNN-based LSTM, BiLSTM and GRU algorithms are evaluated on CICInvesAndMal2019 data set which contains 8115 static features for malware detection. Experimental results show that the BiLSTM model outperforms other proposed RNN-based deep learning methods with an accuracy rate of 98.85 %.
