Cybersecurity Advisory for Android Smartphones

Google recently ended critical security support for Android 12 and all prior versions of its mobile operating system. This poses a serious security risk to the over 40% of all Android devices that no longer have access to security patches. Immediate action is required for affected users, as these devices are now vulnerable to new malware and spyware attacks.

Any Android device incapable of updating to Android 13 or a newer version should promptly be replaced.
