Nice to meet you, *****!
I assume that you can use any antivirus software that provides protection for Android.
There is a huge variety of them, the most popular are McAfee, Norton, TotalAV, BitDefender
So even though I won't be receiving security updates from the phone manufacturer, I will still be safe as long as I purchase it from one of those above?
Usually not receiving security updates from the phone manufacturer doesn't mean that paid antivirus services stop updating their antiviruses. I assume that you will be able to stay safe as long as you have an antivirus, however it also depends on you, sometimes only your attention can protect your device or account
Ok thank you so much. Question answered!
Do you have any additional questions I can help you with?
Nope
