According to the announcement at google I/O developer conference happened during May, 2019, there are more than 2.5 billion active android devices world wide which is roughly 1/3rd of the whole human population world wide. It is really concerning that any of these devices can be attacked or compromised using commonly available tools such as RAT. AhMyth, one among the powerful toold, can help outsiders track device's location, access camera, SMS, call log and even record user's conversations using microphone in stealth mode.
Almost all operating systems feature remote administration tools which was intended to provide tech support for remotely accessing the systems and allowing administrators to control the device remotely. A good tool in bad hands always makes the tool do bad things. Hackers saw the potential of these tools and started using them for malicious purposes. Today's advanced RATs are used to remotely access and control thousands of devices world wide.
It is important that you shouldn't install apps that are unidentified by Play services and also avoid giving phone with strangers.
