What is the best free anti-virus software for Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1?

Answer 1

Google's open-source software leader has lashed out at companies selling antivirus software for mobile devices including Google's Android operating system, calling them "charlatans and scammers".Chris DiBona, Google's open-source programs manager, unleashed his tirade after seeing a press report about "inherent" insecurity of open-source software, which is used not just in Android but also Apple's iOS. He argued that Android, iOS, and Research in Motion's BlackBerry OS don't need antivirus software."Virus companies are playing on your fears to try to sell you BS protection software for Android, RIM, and, iOS," DiBona said on*Google+. "They are charlatans and scammers. If you work for a company selling virus protection for Android, RIM or iOS, you should be ashamed of yourself."He didn't mention any companies by name, but there are plenty of examples. Symantec, Intel's McAfee subsidiary, F-Secure, and Kaspersky all sell mobile antimalware software. Also getting in on the action are two carriers, Sprint and AT&T.DiBona argued that mobile devices, while not flawless, are inherently more secure than personal computers."No major cell phone has a 'virus' problem in the traditional sense that*Windows*and some*Mac machines*have seen," he said. "There have been some little things, but they haven't gotten very far due to the user sandboxing models and the nature of the underlying kernels."Sandboxing confines computing processes to memory compartments and restricts their privileges, making it harder for a compromised program to be used as a launching point for more extensive attacks on a computing device.
