Which security apps for Android phones work best with Firefox browser?

more options

I recently got an LG G Flex and want to make certain that I protect it in every way possible. Before I go exploring the Internet using it, I want to find a really top-notch security app that will work with Firefox as my browser. Does anyone know of a great security app that works well with Firefox browser?

I don't know of any security apps that integrate with Firefox for Android. Android's security model makes security apps somewhat ineffective. Each app is in a silo that only that app has access to. Apps cannot infect each other and their access to the Android OS is strictly controlled.

Some security apps will not allow use of any browser other than the one from Google. I do not want to use that as my browser. I prefer to use Mozilla Firefox as my browser. Does anyone know which security app for Android phones works well with Mozilla Firefox browser
