Google Play Protect is finally protected on Android

Google is preparing to release another security feature for Android devices, called Google Play Protect.

Google Play Protect, will be part of the Google Play Store application, and will use machine learning to analyze application usage with the aim of eliminating dangerous and malicious applications, which are often found in the Store companys.

When Google Play Protect adapts to the Google Play Store, users will not need to install or enable this security feature separately.

Google Play Protect is a service that will always be available and according to the company it detects 50 billion applications a day on one million Android devices.

Google has already implemented some security measures to keep your smartphones safe, such as the Verify Apps service as well as the Bouncer service. But once the apps are uploaded to the Play Store and installed on the device Google has nothing in place to monitor the behavior of these apps, which malicious app developers know and exploit.

So with an automatic run in the background, Google Play Protect will analyze your devices and their apps. It should be mentioned that the new security feature will not only analyze apps before they appear in the Play Store but will also monitor them once they are installed on the device, as well as apps installed from stores third parties.

For this reason, Google uses engineering learning algorithms, which automatically compare the behavior of applications and distinguish those that work abnormally. If it encounters a malicious application, it will alert you or even immediately turn off the application to prevent further malfunctions.

Google says the service will run around the clock to protect even the latest threats.

With Google Play Protect running, Android Device Manager will be replaced with Find My Device, which is used to find lost devices.

You will be able to use your browser or any other device to call, locate, remotely locate your device or even delete data to protect your sensitive information remotely.

Device Finder is the same old app, but Google has included it in the new Google Play Protect program.

With the Safe Browsing feature in Chrome, Play Protect will allow users to stay safe while browsing the Internet as well.

Therefore, if you visit any website that works suspiciously, Safe Browsing will alert you and block any pages that appear to be infringing or do not appear to be safe.

The Google Play Protect service will be released on Android devices in the coming weeks.
