Android操作系统最近改变了其与安全和隐私相关的权限模型，使其用户能够控制应用程序在其设备上允许访问的资源。这种对传统粗粒度权限系统的重大改变，是隐私意识强的用户长期以来所期待的。本文介绍了第一项研究，分析Android用户的适应细粒度的运行时权限模型，关于他们的安全和隐私控制。我们从50名下载了我们的应用程序并回答了与新权限模型相关的问题的参与者那里收集了匿名数据。结果表明，大多数用户更喜欢新的模式。我们还收集了在给定时间内展示用户安全控制的数据。我们的分析表明，个人做出一致的选择，他们允许各种应用程序访问的资源。
The Android operating system changed its security- and privacy-related permission model recently, offering its users the ability to control resources that applications are allowed to access on their devices. This major change to the traditional coarse-grained permission system was anticipated for a long time by privacy-aware users. This paper presents the first study that analyzes Android users' adaptation to the fine-grained runtime permission model, regarding their security and privacy controls. We gathered anonymous data from 50 participants who downloaded our application and answered questions related to the new permission model. The results indicate that the majority of users prefer the new model. We also collected data that demonstrate users' security controls at the given time. Our analysis shows that individuals make consistent choices regarding the resources they allow to various applications to access.
