Stalkerware is a malicious software that allows secret monitoring of a person’s device. It can invade privacy by tracking a person’s location, calls, messages, and other private information. Though it affects both Android and iOS devices, the methods of installation differ significantly. Android’s open-source nature makes it more vulnerable to such Malware. iOS’s tight security measures make it less prone but not immune. Essential defense measures include awareness, regular review of app permissions, and robust security measures.
