Android 16 could introduce an Intrusion Detection feature (APK teardown)
Spotted suspicious activity on your phone? That's where this Intrusion Detection feature comes in.


- Google is working on an Intrusion Detection system for Android, according to a teardown of the Play Services app.
- The system will collect a log of your device/network activities that can be accessed if you notice suspicious activity across your account or devices.
- Google’s code suggests this log is end-to-end encrypted and can only be accessed with your Google account password and device authentication.
Security seems to be a major focus for the upcoming Android 16 release. The company is working on an Advanced Protection Mode, but it also looks like another major security feature is in the pipeline.
