Originally Published 2 years ago — by Droid Life
Google Play Protect is introducing real-time app scanning, utilizing on-device machine learning and similarity comparisons to detect malicious code in apps. The software extracts important signals from the app and sends them for code-level evaluation, providing users with a result indicating whether the app is safe to install or potentially harmful. The feature will initially roll out in India and then become available to users worldwide in the coming months.
