3 Robust Security
Whereas a large majority of Apple’s mobile devices are running recent builds of iOS, Android is considerably more ‘fragmented’, in the sense there are currently dozens of ‘active builds’ of the Android software in the wild, which present some obvious and not so obvious security concerns.
In all fairness, Google has improved its efforts to address Android security matters in recent years, releasing more frequent patches and security updates — however as far as potential Android defectors are concerned, Apple not only appears to have more control over its apps and ecosystem, but the company’s advanced security features provide a more thorough “safe harbor” for its user’s most sensitive data, Creative Strategies concluded.
