This time the main operating systems in the mobile world are Google’s Android and Apple’s IOS, however the IOS has always had the reputation of being the most secure.
But now the roles reversed?
well, the director of Google’s security, Adrian Ludwig, said at a conference yesterday that both operating systems are almost equal in terms of security and added that the open ecosystem of the Android could be more secure than IOS in the future.

However, until now the OS of Apple has been shown to be more able to safeguard the user, in large part thanks to the way how they release security patches, and by the less diversification of equipment on the market.
that is, when a software update comes out for the IOS, this arrives to all compatible terminals, while on Android the updates sometimes have to pass by the brand and still by the operator and only after you get to the user’s smartphone. But Ludwig said that they have been engaged in trying to resolve this situation.
Ludwig said that the number of Android smartphones that have potentially harmful applications installed is less than one percent, but acknowledged that the fragmentation that exists in the Android system, and delays in the updates of security patches continue to be a concern for Google.
Observed and shot from the edge even though the system open source in the Android may result in an increase of security, and you now likely are you to disagree completely, but if you think harder until it makes sense, since there is numerous brands in search of security flaws that will decrease the probability that there are so many problems to detect, and as the saying goes, "two heads are better than one".
finally, Adrian Ludwig also stated that an attack from a malware to a large number of people is almost impossible in the Android system and do not expect that this will happen.
Let’s see what Google has in store for the future and for your Android Operating System.
