Real-Time Protection

for Android

The Real-time protection section lets you configure settings for real-time protection on mobile devices, to ensure timely detection of malicious objects.

Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android detects the following types of objects:

• Viruses, worms, Trojans, and malicious tools
• Adware
• Legitimate apps that intruders can use to compromise users' mobile devices or data

Anti-Malware has several limitations:

• Due to technical limitations, Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android cannot scan files with a size of 2 GB or more. During a scan, the app skips such files without notifying you that such files were skipped.
• Due to technical limitations, on devices running Android 11 or later, Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android cannot scan the "Android/data" and "Android/obb" folders, and detect malware in them.
