Protection-phone.site

Protection-phone.site is an advertising website designed to prey on unsuspecting Apple users. The sole goal of the site is to inject dubious promotional materials into the user's Calendar application. However, the website cannot do this on its own. For this purpose, it employs various Potentially Unwanted Programs (PUPs) that, when installed, will provide access to the Calendar application.

Users should keep in mind that such PUPs are rarely downloaded and installed willingly. Instead, they rely on deceptive distribution tactics such as bundling or use fake software updates predominantly. Keep PUPs on your device, even if you find some of their features as useful, can be considered to be a security risk. Most PUPs have been observed to have poor security, and any bugs or glitches in them could potentially be exploited by threat actors to gain access to the user's device.

Besides, the sponsored advertisements presented by Protection-phone.site carry the same risks. They could redirect the user to untrustworthy third-party websites where they can be subjected to various tactics, phishing pages, offers for PUPs, or even attempts to download malware threats disguised as seemingly urgent software updates.

It is strongly recommended to perform a scan with a professional anti-malware solution and remove all suspicious applications identified by it.
