Also, we have seen that most of the people also prefer Android due to the reason that there are many options in the smartphones that run Android rather than iOS which is only available on the iPhones that are available from Apple due to it being a closed source operating system. Now, one thing with Android which was the reason that it has slower adoption rate was the security factor of the operating system which was pretty low in the earlier times. This made Android as an OS insecure compared to other OSs. Thus, Google started to release monthly security patches for Android that were available to all the smartphones running Android regardless of Android version or device age. Now, the latest security patch has been released by Google yesterday and this security patch is from the month of January and this security patch is the first security patch to be released by Google in 2018. Now, the most important patch in this update is the one which lets remote attackers make specially crafted files that’d allow remote code execution on your smartphone. After the January 2018 security patch, the attackers won’t be able to do this to your Android devices so it is needless to say that you should upgrade your smartphone to January security patch soon.
