The PermGuard dataset is a carefully crafted Android Malware dataset that maps Android permissions to exploitation techniques, providing valuable insights into how malware can exploit these permissions. It consists of 55,911 benign and 55,911 malware apps, creating a balanced dataset for analysis. APK files were sourced from AndroZoo, including applications scanned between January 1, 2019, and July 1, 2024. A novel construction method extracts Android permissions and links them to exploitation techniques, enabling a deeper understanding of permission misuse.
