Our Q3 2012 Mobile Threat Report shows that we discovered more than 51,000 samples of Android malware.

And we've been asked, how many of those were discovered in Google Play?

So here's a breakdown: there were 28,398 malicious samples, 146 came from Google Play; and there were 23,049 potentially unwanted software (PUA) samples, 13,639 came from Google Play.

Note: please remember that sample does not necessarily equal threat. Based on our detections, the number of "families" in the wild is actually down when compared to Q3 2011.
