Cómo evitar virus en los teléfonos

Los virus informáticos son un tipo de software malicioso que navega por la web buscando dispositivos para infectar. ¿Cómo evitar ingresar a enlaces que puedan dañar el equipo?

Hay muchos mensajes engañosos que llegan por WhatsApp disfrazados de sorteos o premios, poniendo en riesgo los datos personales, el correo electrónico, las redes sociales o las contraseñas bancarias.

[{"selector":"#anim-98b920d7-0072-4960-ab8d-c472646e8555","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-dbe32a7f-9cbd-4d47-975d-49b22998bbc4","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, -129.72311%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-4696be50-ca33-4efb-a584-426d9341935e","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":500,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-39bde5da-dbc3-4a49-8f0d-abfabbfcf036","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 123.45173%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":500,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-e6445adb-17f6-4b81-990b-efdd08cde547","keyframes":{"opacity":[1,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-0ea79978-c3f2-4dda-9c6c-f6cbaaf8cb1c","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(3)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Cualquiera podría caer en estas trampas ya que los mensajes rara vez llegan de números desconocidos y por el contrario, son enviados por una persona cercana.

Una vez que se abre el enlace o se descarga el archivo recibido, el programa malicioso se instala silenciosamente en el teléfono y comienza a robar información.

[{"selector":"#anim-0e968f5d-8f5e-492c-9cbc-5b625d930ddf","keyframes":{"opacity":[1,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-eccaa7b2-06b3-4f6e-ab39-7bd1f9d954d9","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(3)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-0900070f-a98f-4b96-a8c6-1d863a1cf277","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":500,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-f31e7f5d-c16b-4969-b383-093eedce8c22","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 148.26386%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":500,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-723de73c-d7db-44ea-a1bd-f9904158bec6","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":3000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-d9c0a35a-3af7-4ebb-a755-455b5b109bd5","keyframes":{"transform":["rotate(-270deg) translate3d(0px, 75.77508%, 0) rotate(270deg)","rotate(-270deg) translate3d(0px, 0px, 0) rotate(270deg)"]},"delay":0,"duration":3000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

WhatsApp comienza a abrirse o cerrarse sin haber recibido esa orden. También puede ocurrir con otras plataformas.

Otro síntoma es el consumo excesivo de batería y datos del celular. Si esto ocurre es conveniente realizar un análisis de seguridad al equipo para descartar la posibilidad de un virus.

La mejor solución para prevenir este tipo de accidentes es no descargar aplicaciones de dudosa procedencia. Es recomendable hacer uso de las tiendas oficiales de Google o Apple.
