An analysis of the technologies used by cybercriminals allows us to draw conclusions about the virus industry’s possible vectors of development and more effectively confront future threats. You, too, can learn what actions various malicious programs take in infected systems and how to withstand them.
Adware.Airpush in the virus library:
A common advertising network module embedded in applications for Android. Depending on their version, Adware.Airpush modules can display all sorts of information messages on the device's status bar and bring up dialogue boxes. Inexperienced users often take such messages for system notifications, so criminals make wide use of the ad network to distribute malware.
Also, Adware.Airpush modules can transmit such information as the device's IMEI, phone number and GPS coordinates to a remote server.
According to statistics, every fifth program for Android contains a vulnerability (or, in other words, a "loophole") that lets cybercriminals successfully introduce Trojans onto mobile devices and manipulate them into doing whatever actions they need them to.
Dr.Web Security Auditor for Android diagnoses and analyses a mobile device’s security and offers solutions to address security problems and vulnerabilities.
