the maximum length of packets that have been set up to migrate within the computer networks of a university, characteristics of malicious attempts that resemble criminal attempts to overload digital networks with deformed packets and the evidence of the detection of FTP command parameters that were malformed but intruders decided to overload the networks with them were spotted by the participants in the presentations. In addition, the simulation also revealed how it is possible for SIDS to detect unlawful attempts to crack the passwords of users of computer apps (or other software) with motives to gain illegal access and steal the passwords of users in the host that is running services such as Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP). In addition, it was shown that the above toolkit can equally monitor, log and report malicious activities that indicate bad sessions, computer attacks on the Server Message Block (SMB) and intrusions that aim at slowing down (or delaying) the inter-process communication between two processes that can be running as background processes in different networks.

Additionally, from the responses of the participants, we identified and classified prominent malware apps on the basis of their coaching skills. The prevalent of fake coaching apps were sought in **Figure 3**. The observations pointed out that there were no clear winners among fake career coaching apps, deceptive dating apps, fake financial coaching apps and fake voice coaching apps. We also observed that fake moral coaching apps were not frequently detected and understood by significant numbers of vulnerable children. The figure suggests that fake career coaching apps has the prevalent index of 0.235 among the list of categories of common manware apps that are competing with legitimate apps in the software industry. Fake career coaching apps pose to be the meeting point of opportunities for progressive person in life. These apps offer career counseling on prosperous occupations (or lucrative work) that a person can undertake for a significant period of time. We noted that some of the variants of these malware apps also focus on personal development and self-development in chosen occupations. Respondents believed that some of these apps assumed the roles and respondibilities of professionals with the intention to offer useful advice and information on available vocations, job vacancies and employment opportunities in certain localities.

Similarly, the above empirical survey suggests that fake moral coaching apps has the prevalent index of 0.176 among the categories of manware apps that are competing with modern apps in the software industry. Fake moral coaching apps profess to be experts in moral discussions and ethical dimensions in the civic society. These apps are designed to present principles of right and wrong behavior to the target audience. They pretend to frown at dishonest and immoral acts in the society. Some of the existing fake moral apps are holding or manifesting themselves as the authorities with high principles and

custodians of high moral standards that online users should consult whenever they need to seek for advice, directions and suggestions on proper conduct. The variants of these malware apps often pride themselve on being highly educated and knowledgeable in comptemporary issues, moral and ethical values whereas, they are dishonorable apps and their underlying intention is to radicalize young children. Fake moral coaching apps achieve their malicious motives by gradually focusing on discussions about radicalization like ideological concepts, religious fanatism and social cricism.

**Figure 3** also put forward the idea that deceptive dating apps has the prevalent index of 0.212 among the categories of manware apps that are competing with genuine apps in the industry. Significant numbers of the respondents believed are several fake dating apps in software industry. The results showed that some fake dating apps can pretend to offer courtship, sex education and dating tips that will assist young children to find the right partners and improve their successes in dating and future relationships. These malicious apps can pretend (or operate) as if their ideas, theories and concepts will definitely assist young childre to build happy, satisfying and successful future relationships. Some fake dating apps have inbuilt stages of romantic relationships for two individuals to engage in romantic activities together. Some fake dating apps come with criteria that vulnerable youths can adopt to evaluate their partmner's suitability for future intimate relationship. The studies showed that the variations of the above apps can adopt romantic terms and slogan to trill vulnerable kids.

These above observations recommend that fake voice coaching apps has the prevalent index of 0.176 among the categories of manware apps that are competing with justifiable apps in software industry. Fake voice apps are manware apps that pretend to be coaching children on mastery of sounds, accent and mode of speech in certain settings owing to adopt the data they gather from vulnerable children to defraud some people and swindle some vulnerable friends and the relatives of the users in later time. Some of these fake coaching apps can also request patronizers to introduce the apps to their friends and relatives. But then, the apps are secretly devicing strategies to impersonate their users by using their voice, accent, pronunciation and patterns of intonation of the victims. Thereafter, the apps may masqurade and cause serious conflicts between the vulnerable children and their relatives. These apps pretend to be experts in vocal chords, pronounciation and sounds. Some of these manware apps indirectly introduce children to certain suspicious phone numbers that can require bio-data and bank details from the targets.

The observation also implies that fake financial coaching apps has the prevalent index of 0.200 among the categories of maware apps that are competing with genuine apps in the software industry. These groups of waware apps pretend to be experts that are willing to assist indigent children to overcome their financia difficulties and attain their aspirations in life. Sometimes, these apps can deceptively extort vulnerable children by stylishly requesting for token fees for the registration of participants in order to facilitate logistics.

**Figures 4**–**7** establishes the correlation between the elements of the crime and the circumstances that may surround vulnerable children to be alleged of juvenile crimes with malware apps. **Figure 4** basically reveals that the act of vindictive, disconsolate, failures, misfortune, castaway, down grading and downcast can create unwholesome and objectionable circumstances for vulnerable children to be alleged of juvenile crimes with mobile apps. **Figure 5** suggests that news of failure, parental death, planned impulses and unplanned impulses can further constitute derived determinants of the circumstances that can influence vulnerable children to be alleged of juvenile crimes with mobile apps.
