[QUOTE="Outpost, post: 861312, member: 85235"] Tools like FinSpy are running on Android, Apple and even Windows. They can be installed by downloading malicious email attachments, fake apps, exploits or with physical access to the device. So being cross-platform, it is not a problem specific to Google OS. Apart from exploiting exploits, the rest of the infection path, like the rest of malware, can be easily solved by introducing a security layer called brain. [/QUOTE]
