The rapid growth of Android applications has led to increased security threats, making malware detection a critical concern in cybersecurity. This research proposes a static analysis-based technique that employs machine learning for Android malware detection. The proposed method utilizes three classification algorithms: Support Vector Machine (SVM), Random Forest, and Decision Tree. The tool extracts static permission features from APK files to evaluate their effectiveness. The dataset consists of 400 Android applications (200 benign and 200 malicious), which were analyzed using the three machine learning models. Their performance was evaluated and compared using accuracy , precision, recall, and F1-score. The Random Forest model achieved the highest accuracy. The results demonstrate that static analysis combined with a robust classification model can effectively identify malicious applications with a high degree of accuracy. Although the tool is reliable in detecting Android malware, it has limitations in handling obfuscated and dynamic threats. Future research could focus on integrating dynamic analysis techniques to improve detection accuracy and enhance resistance to evasion techniques
