Does iOS 10 have built virus and malware protection

There is no built in malware or virus protection in iOS to my knowledge. But I've also never heard of an iOS device being a victim of any malware. It's a pretty secure OS and there are safe guards in place to lessen this possibility. I wouldn't worry to much about it. Unless you jail break. Then you may be more vulnerable.

iOS doesn't typically need malware or virus protection, it's much more secure than Android in that regard. Just don't jailbreak or click on any spam email links or anything like that.
