Another important suite comes to Android from Windows, this time to protect our terminals against malware, and that shows how important names with long experience in Microsoft's OS appear in Google's mobile operating system.
Google recently reported how less than 0.001% of the applications there are malicious and able to evade conscientiously built defenses both on Android and in the Google Play store. An impressive figure that differs greatly from the view in Microsoft's own operating system, which in certain versions of its OS if the appropriate measures were not taken was completely a drain.
What can be seen from the appearance of Malwarebytes from Windows is its great experience and how you can bring it to a mobile operating system like Android, adding more quality to the existing repertoire of anti-malware applications already in the Google Play Store.
The anti-malware application works on the ancestral principle of a scanner paired with a malicious application database. According to the company, the application actively scans over 200 malware families in real time in both applications and general files.
Apart from the basic scans, Malwarebytes will offer a report of which applications have access to your personal information and which are out of the permissions of the Play Store. Other features that it provides is a security audit which reports on potentially unsafe features such as GPS or an unsecured Wi-Fi network.
Finally, you will find an application manager which controls the use of system resources and that allows even to close them. It is a joy that important names such as Malwarebytes appear on Android with their long experience in Windows.
The application is totally free and from the widget that you will find below you can access its download on Google Play.
