Many attacks on Android systems have taken advantage of the security holes of ADB. Thus, in the updating patch of Android 4.2.2, a new security feature secure USB debugging was implemented so that only trusted hosts can use ADB. This research studies the features of internal communications of ADB. Then it analyzes its protection effects on ADB based attacks and found that the new feature cannot provide sufficient protection when the host used to connect with Android devices has been compromised. A demonstration attack following this method is given along with an improvement design of the security mechanism of USB Debugging Mode. The implementation of this design and its evaluation are also provided to demonstrate its effectiveness. 2014 English text University of Toledo / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=toledo1417536423 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=toledo1417536423 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
