AVG Mobilation for Windows Phone

A technical teardown of the AVG Mobilation antivirus app for Windows Phone. The article examines the app's code via a decompiler, finding it's a port from Android with a scanning UI that simulates work. The analysis reveals the 'scanning' algorithm only checks picture and music libraries with no real malware detection, concluding the app is essentially a joke from a well-known security company.
