Android Is Now As Secure As iPhone

iPhones are less affected by malware attacks compared to Android devices. It is the reason that BlackBerry fell to her knees as governments and companies began replacing their aging tech with iPhones. Android is often considered as less secure than iOS platform, but according to a Google engineer, that's not the case.

Adrian Ludwig, director of the security of Android said that the platforms are "almost identical in terms of their platform-level opportunities for almost any threat models. "Ludwig recently spoke at a conference on security in Manhattan, saying that Google's new Pixel Phones are pretty much similar to the iPhone in terms of safety, but Ludwig was quick to mention that he believes that Android will soon surpass iPhone in terms of security.

From the Google engineer, the delay of the smartphone manufacturers in providing updates to the users are the reason for the occurrence of high-profile exploits that pop up from time to time.

This can be changed only by the manufactures by pushing out monthly security updates.
