Ransomware

Ransomware is a kind of malware that takes your device hostage until you pay the cybercriminal a certain amount of money. Usually this payment happens through bitcoin, or another untraceable form of currency transfer. For example, a häçker might pose as the FBI, lock down the phone, and keep it hostage until a fee is ρáíd.

Universal Cross-Site Scripting (UXSS) Attack

If you’re using an older Android model, then you’re susceptible to this attack. This attack is when cybercriminals write code using JavaScript if you accidentally click on a malicious link. That means that the häçker can automatically download a malicious app onto your phone. The best way to stop the possibility of this kind of attack? Upgrade your Android to a newer model.

Malware Hidden in Downloaded Apps

Some of the most innocuous apps have hidden malware that infects users’ systems. Even solitaire games and history apps have downloaded viruses onto users’ Androids. The problem with these apps is that they might seem like they are functioning fine for weeks or even months before they download the virus. This means that you’ll stop looking at your newly-downloaded app as the source of your new virus.

Android Installer Hijacking

A shocking number of Android devices — nearly 50% — are at risk for this virus. The Android Installer Hijacking app comes into play when you try to download a valid app. Instead, the hijacker installs a malicious app in place of the real one. While you are reviewing the permissions for the app you want, the Hijacking virus sets up an innocent-looking app that will later install the malware.

pano po tanggalin?

 

[Dario Ni Jackielyn]

download lang ok pero pag naiinstall mo na haha dun na yun

 

[JeyPi]

pano po tanggalin?

Uninstall unwanted apps.
Yung mga di mo naman ininstall pero nanddyan remove it.

Also, don't just give permission on apps.

Like :

Mic app - "Requests to access your files."

------

Don't download apps that require out of scope permissions.

ahh sige po paano po pag di playstore kinuha? need ko po ba mag gamit ng anti virus?

 

[Raddddjur]

rooted device lang pwede makatanggal ng virus dahil majority ng virus target ay nasa system app

 

[0xGh0st]

I suggest na tignan mo behavior ng app na nadownload mo. For better safe gamit k ng anti virus khit free lang like Kaspersky.

If di sa playstore kinuha well meaning
tinake mo na yung risk na magkaroon and by that dapat ready ka sa mangyayari sa phone mo.

Anti-virus? Idk, pero di ako gumagamit nun.
Your call, pero dagdag ram usage lang yun para sakin.

Rooting gives the user administrator rights to alter the OS, tweak the hardware and unlock the phone from its carrier
ito talaga ang solution para ma.delete ang viruses, install mo din ang anti virus app para ma.detect nya kung ano ang name ng virus
dahil pabalik balik yan kung di agad maagapan
