The Android Virtualization Technique: a Double-Edged Sword for Developing Attacks and Defences
Abstract: Android virtualization enables an app to create a virtual environment in which other apps can run.

During this talk, I will illustrate different use cases that refer to malicious and legitimate usages of the Android virtualization technique.
