Android 4.2 will bring greater protection from malware

     Android users have a reason to look forward to upgrading to version 4.2 (still codenamed Jelly Bean) operating system, thanks to a new system for real-time control will be able to offer more standard guarantees as regards the identification of malware content within applications. Although Google has stepped up security on the applications on Google Play, the problem arises for applications that download more data from the Internet, directly from the server developers. In this case the controls on Google Play have no effect, since the additional data does not pass through it.
     The new anti malware Android 4.2 should be able to give additional protection, we must however agree, enabling a specific menu item, to allow Google to 'snoop' in our research smartphone of malicious applications. Still on Android 4.2 will introduce a new control to prevent applications from sending SMS without your consent, severely limiting the operation of those who send text messages to premium numbers, with serious consequences in the bill.
