As an open source application, potential may be subject to attacks by malicious applications the Google Android operating system, this sounds like common sense is a well known. However Android just how vulnerable to attack, or whether its attack surface may have more than wide, this may and we used to know, then I’ll look at the experts ‘ opinion. According to Kaspersky pointed out that the Android mobile operating system there are at least likely to be not less than 70 kinds of attacks by malicious applications, and along with the popularity of Android operating system, this number may be growing rapidly.

Now Google has banned the company from the Android Market sales and marketing applications with potential hazards, and have remote reversed a lot of similar harmful levels. Android has been vulnerable to attacks by malicious applications, and is now the situation has not changed, but so far too much Google still gave no exact statistics.

According to Kaspersky revealed that Google Android operating system until March 2011 faces at least 70 different malicious software attacks, and this still continues to grow. Seems Google is still no way to effectively address this issue, with the gradual as the world’s largest mobile operating system Android, security issues for Google, will be a question for sustainable solutions.

Also seems to Android Market market needs for better control, for example, Android operating system may need just like Apple’s App Store, introducing a decent review system. Otherwise, security problems will most likely turn into a Google headache problem, and will fundamentally shake the competitive basis to the Android operating system, and scared a lot of potential users.
