Popularity aside, we like Ookla for having everything a basic user needs from a speed test: accuracy, the ability to view your speed test history (when you create an account), a wide array of servers to connect to, and even a handy app for speed testing from your Android or iOS device. Now that Bitdefender has rolled out its new anomaly detection feature to its mobile antivirus app, we could potentially see other malicious apps discovered that up until now have been able to avoid detection.One of our favorites is the Ookla speed test, which has a strong reputation for consistency and for being one of the first speed tests on the web.

While sideloading apps by installing them using an APK file may be convenient, you have no way to know whether or not these apps are legitimate. When it comes to staying safe from adware apps or other malicious apps, the main way you can protect yourself is to avoid sideloading apps. After being launched - either by the user or automatically after a reboot or unlock - the apps reach out to a server controlled by the cybercriminals behind this campaign and retrieve ads that are displayed in your smartphone’s browser.Īt the moment, it appears that these adware apps are just showing ads but as Bitdefender notes in its report on the matter, their creators could change this “to redirect users to other types of malware, such as banking Trojans to steal credentials and financial information or ransomware”. To make matters worse, these 60,000+ adware apps don’t have app icons and use a UTF-8 character in their labels which makes them much harder to spot.

Instead, the app lays dormant for two hours before registering two ‘intents’ that cause it to launch when your smartphone boots up or is unlocked. However, doing this doesn’t actually uninstall the app. Once installed, these adware apps ask you to open them before an error message which reads “Application is unavailable in your region. However, these download sites were created to distribute malicious Android apps as APK files that need to be side-loaded instead of installed through an official app store. If a user does click on one of these sites in their search engine, they are redirected to other websites that show ads or prompt them to download the app they were searching for.
