Dr.Web for Android provides resident anti-virus protection and neutralizes malware—it scans all files in real time as they are saved to the device. With Dr.Web you can perform an express or full scan of the entire file system and individual files and folders, and protect SD cards from infection by malignant autorun files. Detected threats can be removed immediately or placed in the quarantine.

Dr.Web Anti-virus is equipped with anti-theft to help a user find a lost or stolen device or remotely delete personal information, if necessary. With anti-theft, you can lock your phone, get its GPS coordinates as a link on Google Maps, and remotely wipe data from your phone's memory or memory card.
