360 Security on Android

360 Security is an all-in-one tool for cleaning the operating system and external drives from malicious and potentially dangerous files. In addition to antivirus protection, the utility secures web connections online and allows you to block unwanted calls.

Virus Activity Scanner

The main function of 360 Security is to protect your smartphone from malicious software. The virus activity scanner is triggered as needed and before new apps are installed. The risk of infection by Trojans and Spyware, according to the developers, is minimal because the virus database is updated daily. Nevertheless, installing applications from unknown sources is highly discouraged. The virus code is not always detected.

Scanner options:

• Quick and complete scan.
• Blocks applications with data privacy violations.
• System vulnerability scanning.
• Malware alert.
• Web protection against viruses (built-in firewall).

Users can set up auto-checking of the system for a stable operation of the smartphone. If suspicious activity is detected, 360 Security will display an appropriate notification on the smartphone screen and offer to correct errors.

Smartphone acceleration and cleanup

On Android devices, background processes are manually blocked, which can negatively affect the developer's software. In 360 Security, such failures are excluded. The program temporarily "puts apps to sleep" by freeing up free disk memory.

The acceleration module is triggered by scanning the file system. Unnecessary applications or residual data (cache, cookies, key registries) clogging device memory can be removed in 1 click.

Scanner options:

• Detect unused, temporary files, empty folders.
• Deletion of data from RAM and external drives.
• Search for applications launching offline, consuming battery power and traffic.
• CPU cooling.
• Setting up automatic scanning on a schedule.

The system is cleaned from "garbage" selectively. Files that are not used by Android or the user themselves are placed in the container.

Remote access

360 Security has a built-in module for searching your smartphone via GPS. The utility will indicate the coordinates of the device if it is connected to the Internet and a GPS tracker.

Remote options:

• Lock screen.
• Delete or encrypt data (call history, contacts, media, passwords).
• Enabling the device detection signal.

To remotely access 360 Security on another device, you must first create an account.

Spam filter

360 Security has the ability to activate a "blacklist" of contacts. Unwanted calls and texts are blocked automatically. This option is offered free of charge.

Traffic limitation

Built-in traffic manager allows you to control the amount of transmitted and received data. If necessary the user can set a limit in gigabytes. When the threshold value is reached the program will notify about the soon disconnection of the Internet.

360 Security is designed to protect your phone from virus activity. Additional tools of the utility are a memory booster and a call blocker. Installation of the application is recommended for problems with the performance and performance of smartphones. Due to the low hardware requirements of devices, the antivirus can be used on older Android versions.
