This update is an addition to Google's "Verify apps" feature, which already checks all apps for potentially harmful code before installing them on a device.- An app might start off as perfectly benign, but then receive updates that change its code, turning it into something other than what you installed, especially if that app comes from somewhere other than the Google Play store.
