This has been a key element enabling us to more rapidly handle the SSL/TLS certificate needs of Google products.<br /> <br /> As we look forward to the evolution of both the web and our own products it is clear HTTPS will continue to be a foundational technology. This is why we have made the decision to expand our current Certificate Authority efforts to include the operation of our own Root Certificate Authority. To this end, we have established Google Trust Services (<a href="https://pki.goog/">https://pki.goog</a>/), the entity we will rely on to operate these Certificate Authorities on behalf of Google and Alphabet.<br /> <br /> The process of embedding Root Certificates into products and waiting for the associated versions of those products to be broadly deployed can take time.

One security solution included on all devices with Google Play is <a href="https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/2812853?hl=en">Verify apps</a>. Verify apps checks if there are Potentially Harmful Apps (PHAs) on your device. If a PHA is found, Verify apps warns the user and enables them to uninstall the app.</div> <br /> But, sometimes devices stop checking up with Verify apps. This may happen for a non-security related reason, like buying a new phone, or, it could mean something more concerning is going on. When a device stops checking up with Verify apps, it is considered Dead or Insecure (DOI). An app with a high enough percentage of DOI devices downloading it, is considered a DOI app. We use the DOI metric, along with the other security systems to help determine if an app is a PHA to protect Android users. Additionally, when we discover vulnerabilities, we patch Android devices with our <a href="https://source.android.com/security/bulletin/">security update system</a>. <br /> <br /> This blog post explores the Android Security team's research to identify the security-related reasons that devices stop working and prevent it from happening in the future. <br /> <dl> <dt><strong>Flagging DOI Apps</strong></dt> <dt><strong><br /></strong></dt> <div style="color: black;"> To understand this problem more deeply, the Android Security team correlates app install attempts and DOI devices to find apps that harm the device in order to protect our users.</div> </dl> With these factors in mind, we then focus on 'retention'. A device is considered retained if it continues to perform periodic Verify apps security check ups after an app download. If it doesn't, it's considered potentially dead or insecure (DOI). An app's retention rate is the percentage of all retained devices that downloaded the app in one day. Because retention is a strong indicator of device health, we work to maximize the ecosystem's retention rate. <br /> <br /> Therefore, we use an app DOI scorer, which assumes that all apps should have a similar device retention rate. If an app's retention rate is a couple of standard deviations lower than average, the DOI scorer flags it. A common way to calculate the number of standard deviations from the average is called a Z-score. The equation for the Z-score is below. <br /> <br /> <ul style="text-align: left;"> <li>N = Number of devices that downloaded the app. </li> <li>x = Number of retained devices that downloaded the app. </li> <li>p = Probability of a device downloading any app will be retained.</li> </ul> <span style="color: black;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvr1CXQfagAqCzM8pF2YTCt_ASn-Kt2xB9Fr5wTiRmhmBgG6VvX5FrAcARgbcB2d0CQxG2bU5qhLnnErUjUATZ8VyNq4eguvfhq6z8JXqxwlAgV9BphMWFRo-vSnfWxrw3Gt5MFulRl7zT/s1600/Screen+Shot+2017-01-17+at+12.41.57+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="75" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvr1CXQfagAqCzM8pF2YTCt_ASn-Kt2xB9Fr5wTiRmhmBgG6VvX5FrAcARgbcB2d0CQxG2bU5qhLnnErUjUATZ8VyNq4eguvfhq6z8JXqxwlAgV9BphMWFRo-vSnfWxrw3Gt5MFulRl7zT/s320/Screen+Shot+2017-01-17+at+12.41.57+PM.png" width="320" /></a></span><br /> <div style="text-align: left;"> In this context, we call the Z-score of an app's retention rate a DOI score. The DOI score indicates an app has a statistically significant lower retention rate if the Z-score is much less than -3.7. This means that if the null hypothesis is true, there is much less than a 0.01% chance the magnitude of the Z-score being as high.

One security solution included on all devices with Google Play is <a href="https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/2812853?hl=en">Verify apps</a>. Verify apps checks if there are Potentially Harmful Apps (PHAs) on your device. If a PHA is found, Verify apps warns the user and enables them to uninstall the app.</div> <br /> But, sometimes devices stop checking up with Verify apps. This may happen for a non-security related reason, like buying a new phone, or, it could mean something more concerning is going on. When a device stops checking up with Verify apps, it is considered Dead or Insecure (DOI). An app with a high enough percentage of DOI devices downloading it, is considered a DOI app. We use the DOI metric, along with the other security systems to help determine if an app is a PHA to protect Android users. Additionally, when we discover vulnerabilities, we patch Android devices with our <a href="https://source.android.com/security/bulletin/">security update system</a>. <br /> <br /> This blog post explores the Android Security team's research to identify the security-related reasons that devices stop working and prevent it from happening in the future. <br /> <dl> <dt><strong>Flagging DOI Apps</strong></dt> <dt><strong><br /></strong></dt> <div style="color: black;"> To understand this problem more deeply, the Android Security team correlates app install attempts and DOI devices to find apps that harm the device in order to protect our users.</div> </dl> With these factors in mind, we then focus on 'retention'. A device is considered retained if it continues to perform periodic Verify apps security check ups after an app download. If it doesn't, it's considered potentially dead or insecure (DOI). An app's retention rate is the percentage of all retained devices that downloaded the app in one day. Because retention is a strong indicator of device health, we work to maximize the ecosystem's retention rate. <br /> <br /> Therefore, we use an app DOI scorer, which assumes that all apps should have a similar device retention rate. If an app's retention rate is a couple of standard deviations lower than average, the DOI scorer flags it. A common way to calculate the number of standard deviations from the average is called a Z-score. The equation for the Z-score is below. <br /> <br /> <ul style="text-align: left;"> <li>N = Number of devices that downloaded the app. </li> <li>x = Number of retained devices that downloaded the app. </li> <li>p = Probability of a device downloading any app will be retained.</li> </ul> <span style="color: black;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvr1CXQfagAqCzM8pF2YTCt_ASn-Kt2xB9Fr5wTiRmhmBgG6VvX5FrAcARgbcB2d0CQxG2bU5qhLnnErUjUATZ8VyNq4eguvfhq6z8JXqxwlAgV9BphMWFRo-vSnfWxrw3Gt5MFulRl7zT/s1600/Screen+Shot+2017-01-17+at+12.41.57+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="75" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvr1CXQfagAqCzM8pF2YTCt_ASn-Kt2xB9Fr5wTiRmhmBgG6VvX5FrAcARgbcB2d0CQxG2bU5qhLnnErUjUATZ8VyNq4eguvfhq6z8JXqxwlAgV9BphMWFRo-vSnfWxrw3Gt5MFulRl7zT/s320/Screen+Shot+2017-01-17+at+12.41.57+PM.png" width="320" /></a></span><br /> <div style="text-align: left;"> In this context, we call the Z-score of an app's retention rate a DOI score. The DOI score indicates an app has a statistically significant lower retention rate if the Z-score is much less than -3.7. This means that if the null hypothesis is true, there is much less than a 0.01% chance the magnitude of the Z-score being as high. In this case, the null hypothesis means the app accidentally correlated with lower retention rate independent of what the app does.</div> <dl> <dt><div style="color: black;"> <div style="text-align: left;"> <span style="font-weight: normal;">This allows for percolation of extreme apps (with low retention rate and high number of downloads) to the top of the DOI list.
