Android smartphones are now sold with a virus designed to steal cryptocurrency.
Over 13,000 devices have been infected with the malicious "Keenadu," which was integrated into the firmware during manufacturing.
The virus is capable of: ➥ Fully controlling the device. ➥ Infecting installed applications, including crypto wallets. ➥ Automatically installing APKs and granting them all permissions. ➥ Tracking browser activity, even in incognito mode.
Interesting fact: the Keenadu virus does not activate if the device is set to Chinese language and the China time zone.
