PROTECT YOUR ANDROID FROM MALWARE



Number of Android which are activated each day has reached 700 thousand devices. Very large number of these things attract malicious programmers to gain profits by way of evil, ie make hidden applications that can harm others. Application or malicious software is called malware. If you are the type to believe in any application, there may be malware that infects your device.
Some serious malware attack Android to date include DroidDream (Android.Rootcager), Zitmo, HippoSMS, Android.PjappsM, Android.Geinimi, AndroidOS.FakePlayer, Android.Bgserv, GGTracker, DroidKungFu and many more.

Endgaget reported that Google has issued 22 Android.RuFraud malware-infected applications that pretend to be a game like Angry Birds, Assassins Creed or Tetris. These applications had been deleted after being downloaded 14,000 times.
In order to avoid your Android Malware please follow these tips from EarthWakeUp below:

1.Examine before installing apps.
Is the provider (publisher) application is quite famous? Valid and has a website that can be verified? Read the various reviews related publisher before you press the download button (download)

2.Check the permissions.
Does the application we will install or update request permission to view the contact and other personal information? Be careful with applications like this, especially if the application is requested more than reasonable.

3.Avoid direct install Android Packages Files (APKs) from a third party or other apps online shop.
Most of us do not know what was in it before it is installed (and when it is installed, we're too late). Find more info before you are sure to install it.

4.Beware of Scams.
Small smartphone screen making it difficult for users to open a link when it landed at certain sites. Gap is utilized fraudsters by installing an automatic download link or any other malicious script.

5.Install antivirus and anti-malware on your smartphone
Antivirus application for smartphones already available in the market. Again, check the application developer, make sure the developer is really valid and reliable.

You can choose anti-malware from a trusted company below:

Kaspersky Mobile Security ($9.95) 4.1 stars. 
The price is quite expensive but Kaspersky is famous for his ability to always be above average.

Lookout Mobile Security (free) 4.6 stars. 
Made by unfamous companies but its application popularity is rising rapidly in the Android Market. Has the highest ratings.

McAfee Mobile Security (free) 3.7 stars. 
This old players in the world of anti-virus also creates Android applications. Their application compatible with Android Honeycomb.

Norton Mobile Security (Beta) (free) 4.2 stars. 
Norton may be a bit late to enter the Android market.
Although not directly related. Surprisingly, Microsoft offers Windows Mobile smartphone for people who are infected with malware in Android. A marketing effort that failed. Actually, Android itself is very secure by default, but no one is perfect. Vulnerabilities will be open even to any OS whatsoever. Every time a user to allow a process to occur which require data from outside such as the installation of the application then that is where the hackers and crackers can play.
