Android security patch is one of important part of Android Mobile.
Many of us get these updates on our smartphones, or tablets just about
every month. They are security updates which don’t really change
anything for the user, or really show them anything new. But it does
protect the user from exploits. Now many users will see this update come
in as a notification and opt to ignore it (in fact, more than half of
Android users will ignore it, according to Google’s numbers), instead of
installing the update. It’s no surprise, seeing as this forces you to
restart your device and can sometimes take your device out of commission
for around 20-30 minutes.
Now there are things you can do to help protect yourself from these vulnerabilities, besides installing these security patches when they land on your device. That includes installing apps only from the Google Play Store. This is because Google has a feature called “Verify Apps” on every Android smartphone which scans apps that installed. Whether from the Play Store or elsewhere, to see if they are malicious.

Android Security Patch :
Android Security patch refers to the supporting data in order to fix or improve it. It comprises of fixing security vulnerabilities as well as other bugs. Like the data has received the paramount differences, security also received the same importance. While a security patch is implemented in an android device, it makes the security part faster, but what it looks for the permission for location, using camera, etc.In order to make the point clearer, last year the update of Android Marshmallow (6.0). Where it took improvement that has traveled a long way in order to safeguard the device. It has all started with stage fright vulnerability. Which is a flaw in order to snatch data without having to do single thing. Which has made Google and Samsung made a promise to roll out monthly security updates. Google also started operating Android Security Bulletin which gives a detailed overview retrospect monthly security release.
Most people don’t pay attention but security patches are hugely important to keep your phone safe n secure. There are lots of bug exploits out there and new ones are being discovered every second. Heart bleed and a recent ransomware Wannacry (though it’s specific to windows) are some examples of what happens when you dont regularly update you OS and don’t apply security patches. Microsoft had released a patch for wannacry in March 2017. But since many people didn’t update, the ransomeware spread like hell.
