Install antivirus apps, and there have been plenty of such apps on Play Store, some of the best being 360 Mobile Security, Avast and Lookout.

The computer case is the metal and plastic box that contains the main components of the computer, including the motherboard, central processing unit (CPU), and power supply. The front of the case usually has an On/Off button and one or more optical drives. Computer cases come in different shapes and sizes.
