Verified step by step guidance1
Understand that viruses and malware often enter mobile devices through untrusted sources such as unofficial app stores, suspicious links, or by exploiting security vulnerabilities.
Recognize that installing apps only from official app stores reduces the risk because these platforms typically have security measures to screen apps for malicious content.
Identify that sharing your device password with others increases the risk of unauthorized access and potential virus installation, so it should be avoided.
Know that disabling automatic system updates is risky because updates often include security patches that protect your device from new threats.
Avoid clicking on links from unknown text messages, as these can be phishing attempts or contain malware designed to infect your device.
