Today, our smartphones are much more than simple devices that we use to communicate. Thanks to technological advances, most of us perform activities on our phones that we used to do on our desktop PCs. This leads to similar problems that desktop users have been facing for years, namely, cybersecurity threats that range from malware to phishing and much more. But are our Android and iOS devices secure enough for us to perform our banking, investing, and storing sensitive information on them?
