Does Control+ Check for Viruses? Do you have Antivirus?
Control+ is not an antivirus system and does not scan for or remove viruses from your device. Its main purpose is to protect your personal data and privacy, not to provide traditional malware protection.
How to Protect Your Device from Viruses
While Control+ keeps your data safe, you can take additional steps to protect your device from viruses and malware:
- Install a trusted antivirus app: Use reputable antivirus software that can detect and remove malware.
- Keep your device updated: Regular software updates patch security vulnerabilities that viruses can exploit.
- Be cautious with downloads: Only download apps and files from trusted sources, like the App Store or official websites.
- Avoid suspicious links: Don’t click on unknown links in emails, texts, or websites.
- Use strong passwords: Protect your accounts with strong, unique passwords to prevent unauthorized access.
Important Note
Control+ focuses on privacy protection, data removal, and call/email monitoring, but it does not replace antivirus software. Using both together gives you the best protection for your data and device.
