Do you know what apps are installed on your business devices?
Researchers recently uncovered hundreds of fake Android apps disguised as everyday tools, including PDF readers and utility apps. Together, they were downloaded more than 24 million times.
The apps appeared to work normally, but later prompted users to install an "update" that downloaded something completely different.
For businesses, it's a good example of why app management matters. Clear controls over which apps can be installed, and regular reviews of what's already there, can help reduce unnecessary risk.
