  evasion
- Removes its main activity from the application launcher
  stealth trojan evasion
- Checks CPU information
  Checks CPU information which indicate if the system is an emulator.
  evasion discovery
- Checks memory information
  Checks memory information which indicate if the system is an emulator.
  evasion discovery
- Loads dropped Dex/Jar
  Runs executable file dropped to the device during analysis.
  evasion
- Makes use of the framework's foreground persistence service
  Application may abuse the framework's foreground service to continue running in the foreground.
  evasion persistence
- Queries account information for other applications stored on the device
  Application may abuse the framework's APIs to collect account information stored on the device.
