is android 9 safe from hackers' attacks

 No, Android 9 (Pie) is not safe from hacker attacks. [1]

• End of Support: Google officially stopped providing official security updates and technical support for Android 9. [1, 2]
Vulnerabilities: Without regular system-level security patches, any newly discovered flaws in the operating system will never be fixed, leaving the device exposed to malware, spyware, and data theft. [1, 2]
Baseline Protection: While Google Play Protect continues to offer real-time app scanning, it cannot fix missing operating system vulnerabilities or low-level exploits. [1, 2]

Risks of Using Android 9

Exposed Exploits: Hackers target unsupported software because known security holes remain open permanently.
Banking and Data Theft: Malware can more easily intercept credentials, personal data, or authentication codes. [1, 2]
Outdated App Support: Many modern banking, messaging, and utility apps eventually drop support for older Android versions, causing them to stop working or lose secure connection features.
