Google Adds New Behavior-Based Malware Scanner To Every Android Device

Google has introduced Google Play Protect, an always-on security service for Android devices. It uses machine learning and app usage analysis to weed out the dangerous and malicious apps. Google says it scans 50 billion apps each day across a billion Android devices to ensure they are safe. Google already has a number of security measures in place to help keep smartphones safe, including Verify Apps and Bouncer. The service will be rolling out to Android devices over the coming weeks. Google also introduced Find My Device, which allows you to remotely call, locate, and lock, your Android device.
