The time for the netbooks and notebooks have come and gone. That is if we are to believe the hype surrounding the launch of the internet android tablet left and right. Based on the numbers though, it is easy to see that tablets are becoming more and more popular as sales of netbooks and notebooks have gone down compared to past years. On the other hand people can't seem to get enough of tablets whether it is an internet tablet with camera or without.

The massive increase in the demand for tablets means more shady people are working on exploiting the security deficiencies of the early tablets available today. For the manufacturers, it means that they have much work to do in terms of making their tablets more secure. For the end user, having an internet android tablet means going out and getting security apps. There are free Android apps available for an internet tablet with camera, but which are the most important?

Just like personal computers, you need an anti-virus to make sure that no unwanted program would lay waste to your tablet's operating system. There are free anti-virus apps that you can download while there are also paid ones. While most free anti-virus apps are good enough to protect your tablets from viruses, sometimes, it is worth investing on a paid app especially if you have sensitive documents like work files saved in your internet android tablet.

Whether you own an internet tablet with camera or one without, the fact that you connect to the internet means you can get plenty of spyware if you are not careful. Spyware is designed to gather data from your tablet without you knowing. This is the reason why another important security app you should have on your internet android tablet is an anti-spyware app.

If you are using your internet android tablet to purchase or to sign up for anything online, chances are, you would need to use a lot of passwords. Using the same password over and over is a risky move. Thus, it is essential that you get a password manager app. These apps usually work in a way that you only need to remember one master password and the app would generate and remember passwords for you to use for different sites. The passwords that these apps generate are random so they are more secure.

In the near future, tablet users can choose between many security apps. No matter what the choices may be, these three apps should always be part of one's internet tablet.
