Is Antivirus for ANDROID – WORTH??
Hei Welcome to another blog,

Nowadays technology is evolving. So also Viruses are also evolving day by day. We all know about antivirus. Antivirus in some cases help you out …

Today I will tell you whether you need antivirus for your phone.

Many of our computing tasks have shifted from desktop systems to phone or tablet. In most cases, Android smartphones and tablets do not need installing the antivirus. However, it is equally valid that Android viruses exist and the antivirus with useful features can add an extra layer of security.

Can a smartphone get a virus?
Like desktops and laptops, smartphones are susceptible to viruses, although many users have no idea.

The code that currently plagues smartphones and tablets has a lot more variety in design than the earliest viruses. In general, this malicious code is known as malware. AV-TEST breaks the problem into two categories: malicious programs (malware) and potentially unwanted applications (PUA). But for most users, this distinction is not as important as the broad range of things these programs aim to do.

Malware can be embedded in a website or on a malicious Wi-Fi network that leaves behind code to redirect links to illicit sites or pretends to be a resource it is not. Its aim is to convince you to enter your credentials, making it possible for cybercriminals to steal your information.
Adware can be installed on apps that grab data from other parts of the phone. This information can then be used to lure you into trusting emails or other communications in the future. This software is very hard to distinguish from legitimate software.
Application software can be added to your device through websites or other apps that run in the background, either stealing your information or simply using your computer power and network connection to process information, such as mining cryptocurrencies or executing attacks on other web resources.
Downloading apps from locations other than Google Play or official sites can result in your apps being replaced by copycat apps that actually carry fraudulent ad-clicking software.

However, in case, if you also install the apps outside of Google Play Store, then it is better to install an Android antivirus app to keep your device secure. There are many antiviruses for Android, such as Mc Afee, AVG, Bitdefender, Avast Mobile Security, etc.
So after all do you need antivirus?

I would say you should be safe rather than being sorry.

Google continues to add to its defenses, which are built into the Google Play Store. But with 2.7 million apps and rising, even a very small percentage of misses is enough to spell disaster.

I prescribe that you should definitely install an antivirus.

NASA finds that no tech is available to stop an asteroid’s collision with Earth

NASA exercise finds that no tech is available to stop an asteroid’s collision with earth. So in this blog, we will be discussing this in detail. So let’s start.

NASA and its peers around the world conducted a “table-top” exercise last month to determine the time scientists will take to understand and find ways to prevent a catastrophic collision of an incoming asteroid into the Earth. The simulation was hypothetical and intended to allow scientists time to prepare for such situations if that were to arise. They set the scenario: a mysterious asteroid from about 35 million miles (56.3 million kilometers) away is coming towards Earth and is expected to hit the planet in six months. Scientists sat down for a week starting April 26 to plan ways to stop or change the direction of the hypothetical asteroid, named 2021 PDC.

Finally, on Day 2, they confirmed that the asteroid impact will happen in six months across a vast region, which includes Europe and Northern Africa. By the end of the week, they said with some degree of certainty that the asteroid would hit between Germany and the Czech Republic.

The simulation was hypothetical and intended to allow scientists time to prepare for such situations if that were to arise.

The scientists later concluded that at the moment there was no know-how out there to cease a large asteroid from wiping out the world. For deflecting the asteroid, they added, extra time than six months can be required.

They additionally mentioned that the use of a nuclear explosive gadget to disrupt the asteroid might cut back the chance of injury even within the absence of a transparent understanding of asteroid properties. However, the power of typical nuclear explosive units to robustly disrupt near-Earth objects is probably not enough for bigger asteroids.
