What brand and model of tablet is it? Often the dates are really old on certain system files even if the files are relatively new. Could you extract the APK and share it so I can run it through some malware analysis tools and if needed look into the code myself?
My idea, I'm simple terms, was to basically have you create a backup of the app's package file and share that so that I could have a look to see if it's really malware or just a false alarm by your anti-virus (Norton is kinda notorious for false detections along with McAfee). Given that you know so little I am guessing you probably wouldn't be able to figure put how to extract the app package. Is it a system app (you can check by seeing if it can be uninstalled or not)? If so, it is most certainly a false alarm.
I thik it is a system app, their is a feature on Samsung phones called "auto hotspot". It's probably a false alarm. I'd disable it if you don't need it.
I'd just leave it alone, it's harmless and is a false positive. Norton is a junk anti-virus, and unless you are downloading apps from outside the Play Store it's enough to use Google Play Protect which is enabled by default.
I personally use Kaspersky, it false alarms the least (even less than Play Protect, and also catches malwarr that Play Protect will not) although it still will spit a false positive here and there in some cases but at least it is pretty good at telling you what the reason is.
