Android File system and Permissions

Android File system and Permissions

Hello guys so from today we are starting our new course and this is the first blog of that course. In this blog, we are going to cover the topic named Android File system and permissions. 

File system:  

In computing, a file system controls the data about how data is stored and how it is retrieved. There are two file system types given below:

• Flash memory android file system
• pseudo file system

 Flash memory android file system

There are some types of these systems:

• JFFS2 - This is Journal Flash File System Version 2. 
• YAFFS2 - This is Known as Yet Another Flash File System Version 2. This is a rare file system.
• F2FS2 - This is Flash Friendly File System. This is developed by Samsung for their smartphones.
• exFAT - This is Extendable File Allocation Table. This is developed via Microsoft.
• EXT2/EXT3/EXT4 - Extended File Systems.
  

pseudo file system

There are some types of these systems :

• CGroup(Control Group) - This is important because it provides us CPU and Kernel-related information.
• Rootfs(mount point "/") - Known as Rooting File System. It is used in Linux.
• Procfs(mount point "/proc") - You can live monitor kernel processes.
• Sysfs(mount point "/sys") - It helps us to communicate with another file system and also shows the connected device information. 
• Tmpfs(Temporary File System) - Maintain our temporary file data. 

Android Permissions :

The android applications ask for permissions to function as they build. Android apps must request permission to access users' sensitive data to access cameras, contacts, and SMS. The system might grant permissions automatically sometimes. Go to settings >> Search for app info >> Select an app >> Open and click on permissions options >> Now you can manage your permissions. 
   

I hope it will help you to learn Ethical Hacking More...!
