I want to find a good security product for my tablet device which runs on Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean).
Do you have any good suggestion ?
Thanks.

My first Computer had a Whopping 16K of memory @ 0.89MHz. My first hard drive held 20 Megabytes and never filled up.
My Oldest Motherboard and Hard Drive are a 80286 @ 8Mhz and a Seagate 20 Megabyte MFM drive.

Thanks. Roger.
Another problem to ask. Would people mostly install security product in their tablet ? I'm a new user and don't know much about to take care of it. I treat it like a normal desktop computer or notebook computer.
Other than installing AV software, is there any other method to prevent virus during browsing ?

I can't say if others would install security into their tablet. Being careful where you go and not feeling immune from malware is the best thing I can think of. I know I wouldn't go on the internet without protection.
If you wouldn't do it with your computer on the Internet, you shouldn't do it with your tablet or smartphone either.

Kaspersky Mobile is around twelve bucks a year for one device. I don't know about their mobile yet, but that's all I use on my pc now. I've had enough of the rest of 'em.
