Researchers have discovered a new type of malware in computer security that has an annoying habit of running out of our smartphone battery or Android tablet.
Are our smartphones more valuable than batteries? For many people, this becomes an obsession, and every year we hope that the battery life of the new model will be longer.
While some applications sometimes consume more battery than other applications, it goes without saying that we don't want the phone to lose power due to malware.
This complex malware is actually a reality.
Andr / Clickr-ad: Malware that steals money and batteries
Sophos researchers identified the malware with a very elegant code name: Andr / Clickr-ad.
Found in 22 Android apps that have been downloaded more than 2 million times, this malware is very complicated. So much, this allows him to work under Google's radar for a long time.
What is the role of Andr / Clickr-ad malware? In fact, it simulates interaction with online advertising. It runs in the background of a web browser such as Chrome or Firefox and simulates ad clicks.
Regardless of whether they are using or not using one of these infected applications, the malware will continue to scam the advertiser's tricks.
Worse, it will also transfer our Android devices to the iPhone. Why are you asking? Ok, because advertisers tend to pay more to attract Apple users. This makes the hackers behind the software make more money.
The entire process has unfortunate consequences for the owner of the infected device. In fact, by simulating as many clicks as possible in the background, it runs out of power on your phone or tablet.
Although Google has removed 22 apps from its store Play Store app, if one of the apps is still on our phone or tablet, they will still be activated.
Therefore, be sure to uninstall the application so that the malware is no longer active.
Please note that Sophos researchers have not detected this malware on the Apple App Store.
