Quick Heal Threat Reports are collated after intensive research by our Threat Research and Response Team. They provide an overview and analysis of threat activity reported from Quick Heal installations all over the world.

The recently launched Quick Heal Annual Threat Report 2017 presents a detailed insight into the state of digital security for Windows and Android users. It includes malware detection statistics, top threats, important trends, and security predictions. Here are some excerpts from the report.
