The Android framework includes an operating system, middleware and a set of key applications. The incorporation of integrated access services to the Internet on such mobile devices, however, increases their exposure to damages inflicted by various types of malware. This paper shows the most important component parts of the anatomy of an application on the Android operating system, behavior and function of each and the importance of the internal structure of Android, which has become a platform, reliable, secure and flexible in response to current market needs.
