Abstract—Use of smart phones is increasing day by day. Many applications are available on AppStore to facilitate the use of smart phones. Users have their personal information saved on smart phones. While downloading the application users have to allow access to personal information (e.g. contacts, coarse and fine location etc) and other facilities of the smart phones (e.g. internet, GPS, Bluetooth). But many times malicious applications which do not have access to these smart phone resources may steal the user’s personal information through different attacks like intent spoofing, confuse deputy attack, permission collusion. The aim of the paper is to implement a Permission Manager (PM) model that enables us to formally define some desired security properties, which can prove a hold on Android system. The mechanism is based upon information flow control. To remain practically relevant we developed personalized Mobile Search Engine (MSE) and with the help of application we can prove that the properties hold on the android framework and we are able to secure the user’s personal information. The MSE will personalize the user’s web search results by considering the content and location concepts and profiling the user behavior. Goal is to develop MSE for personalizing the users search results and with the help of MSE to prove that the additionally added security properties are able to prevent malicious software from gaining access to user’s personal data.
