Free scanner app for Android devices to detect vulnerabilities

MUMBAI, INDIA: Kaspersky Lab has released a free mobile application which scans smartphones and tablets for vulnerabilities that put users' valuable data, privacy and money at risk.

Kaspersky Lab has developed Kaspersky Free Fake ID Scanner - a tool which enables Android device owners to scan their devices for all vulnerabilities and as certain that no applications that exploit them are installed on their devices.

The application does not close the vulnerabilities detected, but it prompts the user to install a free version of Kaspersky Internet Security for Android if any threats are detected. That product will protect the device against malicious code regardless of the vulnerabilities exploited by the malware.

The application, which is compatible with Android 2.3 and later versions, is available in Google Play in two languages - English and Russian.
