Android has many advantages, but there are still aspects to work on the platform. One of them are malwares, that plague that is never eradicated, either to do evil on users' smartphones or simply for their own benefit and earn money with it. On this occasion, we come with a news item that deals with the second, more specifically, on apps infected with ad fraud.In Android Ayuda We remind you, on countless occasions, that security on mobile phones is one of the aspects that must be taken care of the most. At all levels, whether passwords, personal data protection, visual privacy or chats. Even so, we are not exempt from the risk of downloading apps that may include this type of malware, and not exactly unknown apps.
And is that since Check Point Software, a website specialized in this type of matter, has reported that a considerable number of apps include a worrying malware. This allows autonomous access to the advertising banners without us, the users, noticing. The virus, called 'Tekya', imitates this action as if it were a human being, accessing mobile advertising from sites such as Facebook or AppLovin '.
Beware of children's apps
Most of those affected have a large number of downloads, reaching millions of users who have decided to install them on their smartphone and without knowing the consequences. It does not mean that the developers of these apps are directly at fault, since it has been the malware that has infiltrated your software.
To make matters worse, of the 56 apps that have been detected, practically half are children's themes, so the malware's target is even more devious. The range of titles is quite wide, from apps with an educational purpose, children's puzzles, racing or action games. The rest are focused on providing a utility, such as calculators, kitchen apps or translators. As we can see, they are normal day-to-day programs, which do not show any suspicion, but it is that 'Tekya' is undetectable for Google Play Protect.
To imitate the actions of users, generate clicks and therefore generate money through advertising, 'Tekya' uses the development MotionEvent to achieve that end. Fortunately, all 56 apps have been removed from the google store and they won't cause any more problems. However, it is another wake-up call for Google Play and for it to continue investigating the increase of more barriers against these malicious viruses.
