HI Shawn, Similar concept to xray in that both are checking for vulnerabilities, but the implementation is quite different. Also the Security Advisor is checking for over 300 vulnerabilities and when I last looked it appeared that xray is checking for <10.
There is a reason that xray is not on Google Play. It actually tries to exploit the vulnerabilities and that is a no-no on Google Play for obvious reasons. The Security Advisor discovers whether the apps or OS are vulnerable versions, and does this without trying to hack into the device. Let us know if you would like any additional info.
