Google rejected or had developers remediate almost 200,000 app submissions to prevent abuse of sensitive permissions like location tracking and SMS access.
Google banned 333,000 bad actor accounts involved in confirmed malware distribution and other severe violations. New developer verification requirements like DUNS numbers for organisations aim to increase trust and transparency.
Google partnered with SDK providers to limit apps' access to sensitive device data and expanded its SDK Index to cover almost 6 million apps-helping developers make better integration choices to boost quality and security.
Google joined forces with Microsoft and Meta in the restructured App Defense Alliance under the Linux Foundation to support adoption of app security best practices across the industry.
