Android users warned of HummingBad malware, as millions of devices infected

Checkpoint researchers report that a cybercrime gang called Yingmob is using the HummingBad malware to exploit millions of Android devices around the world. Yingmob uses the malware to control 10 million devices globally and generate $300,000 per month in fraudulent ad revenue. Keeping your Android phone up-to-date with the latest security patches helps to make it harder for the criminals to get a foothold on your device. There are millions of examples of Android malware, and barely a handful for iOS.”]
