According to my research it seems that antivirus protection on Firestick comes in the form of a VPN. I have NordVPN installed on my Firestick but am not sure if additional antivirus protection is needed. If so, does anyone have a recommendation for a free antivirus for Firestick? Please advise if my assumption is correct. Thank you for your time.
Vpns dont act as a antivirus unless its built in as a feature.
You typically should be okay unless younare installing many modded apks. Use defsquid for a malware checker and anti virus.

I also use defsquid to scan an app before using it.

Thank you for your response TP-Dracoo and rjwinkler. I installed Defsquid on my Firestick and love it - what a great app, thanks for the tip! I also installed it on my Android Box (MyGica) but when I run it an error message says “A network error has occured”, so not sure what is happening because I do have internet connection.
