Google's battle against Triada malware

Google had been combating Triada, a malware that compromised Android devices for ad fraud purposes. Triada was being pre-installed on devices along the supply chain by various vendors and manufacturers. Google made efforts to root out Triada and implemented stricter security measures, leading to certified Android devices becoming safer. However, some Android TV boxes, like the T95, remained vulnerable to Triada. Human researchers discovered the Peach Pit ad fraud scheme, which involved infected Android devices and apps. Over 200 device models were estimated to be affected globally.
