I was informed by our Security Engineer that there is a Malware Android.Malware.Agent detected on my phone and need to get in touch with vendor for more details.
Is there anyone can help me to understand what I should do next?
Thanks in advance!
iPhone 5s, iOS 8.4.1
I think your Security Engineer got a false positive with their security toy. An Android/Agent cannot infect an iPhone.
Thank you.
Actually I contacted with him about the same concern. But he told me that "It's the name of Malware, not the application type".
So I got confused...
Is that to say it is impossible to detect such program on my device?
If your iPhone is not jailbroken or otherwise hacked, there is no malware or
virus that can affect it. If you did jailbreak/hack your iPhone, there is no way to
know what you have allowed to be installed on your iPhone.
There are not virus / trojan like concerns for iOS used normally. The closest iOS comes to becoming infected is if users don't upgrade to the latest version of iOS AND download apps from unverified sources (non App Store download and installation of apps). The security software you Security Engineer used gave a false positive. It is quite common but experienced Security Professionals know such a reading can be ignored when iPhone have been used normally. You might want to see if you can escalate the matter to another professional if the Engineer persists in claiming there is an infection.
Your security engineer seems to be anything but...
My phone is detected with Malware Android.Malware.Agent
