Guest N.M. Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Hello, I have downloaded and installed ESET Mobile Security on an Android Smartphone first time. Before ther was not any kind of internet-security app installed. A First-Scan started automatically and finished with the short report, that 2 threads were found: Android/Agent.CIA and Android/TojanDownloader.Agent.KE Because I was unsettled I let remove both threads. I cannot find one of both threads, neither on homepage from ESET-Security, nor by internet-research . Are both threads known virus or trojaner? Could they have done damage meanwhile, and if, what kind of? How should I have reacted? Was it right, just to remove them? Thanks, N.M.. Link to comment
Administrators Marcos 5,397 Posted April 6, 2021 Administrators Share Posted April 6, 2021 Hard to say what the malware does without a deeper analysis. TojanDownloader.Agent is self-explanatory; it downloads another piece of malware. And yes, deleting the malware is a correct way how to deal with threats on Android. Only in case the threat is found in a pre-installed application, you can only disable it. Link to comment
