  • Hello,

    It’s not always handy to expose malicious software, but there are some key features you can pay attention to. If you notice browser or software changes that you don’t remember authorizing, if your device is slow and even crashing often or if you encounter usage problems, then you might be dealing with spyware. Since these are signs of other issues as well, run a complete system scan immediately but bear in mind that some spyware can be very aggressive and difficult to get rid of and even detect.

    As always, the user is the most important factor, while a negligent one is the number one cause of security breaches. Make sure you always update your operating system, your security software and anti-spyware solution, as well as your web browser. Be on the lookout for suspicious icons which could suddenly appear on your device, keep an open eye for fake apps available for download, and never click on pop-up ads.

    Additionally, clear cache of all the apps and check for all installed apps on your mobile devices by going into settings and if you find any suspicious app or an app which you think may not have been installed by you, uninstall it. Make sure that you do not uninstall any android operating system app.

    If you still feel that you may not be able to find any suspicious app, then the best way would be to completely format your mobile but make sure you have taken backup of all of your important data.
