OK so in this section we showed you how to install a number of Android analysis tools but there is also 1
the option of downloading a VM that comes pre installed with most of the tools we mentioned. 2
So a popular one for example is tamer. 3
It is a virtualize platform for Android security professionals. 4
So basically it is a virtual machine with all the required tools pre installed. 5
Here we have an instance running so if you click on the menu you have the manual analysis section. 6
Reverse engineering section dynamic analysis forensics. 7
So rather than installing all the tools one by one you can just use a virtual machine like Tamer or 8
some other one likes Sandoku which is very similar to Tamer just a bit older the catch here is that 9
as I mentioned earlier with emulators you could face a few problems when running inside a virtual machine 10
but if you're just going to do static analysis or basic analysis then yes maybe just install Tamer 11
or some other operating system to do the work. 12
Alternatively you can try and install the OS on a bare metal machine then you would be able to use the 13
emulator. 14
You can also install Tamer and see what tools are being used there then trying to install the same 15
tool on your own analysis environment.
