Mobile Antivirus Solutions

Unlike desktop PCs, applications on smartphones run each application independent of each other. This ensures that each application on the device cannot access the data of other applications. Because of this, any antivirus software installed on the device is not able to access all of the data contained within the other applications unless the device is jailbroken or rooted.
