There has always been a question mark on the security in the android platform. It still is not considered as secured as Blackberry used to be or Apple's operating system claims to be. But Samsung went one step ahead and came up with a solution that made its devices more secured and trustworthy than any other device around with Android OS- Samsung Knox.
Samsung started with the services way back in 2013 and took some time to stabilize it. Now in 2020 it has been made advanced enough to be in all Samsung devices like Phones, Smart watches, Tablets, TVs and what not, that deal with any data. The Knox security platform is built into Samsung devices, securing them for anytime use. The following salient features makes it special:
Chip-up manufacturing
Samsung designs, manufactures and validates every piece of hardware that goes into Samsung devices.
Data isolation
Built into every component, any sensitive data can be completely isolated into a secured place
Data encryption
With the Knox security platform, all data is stored and remains encrypted, even in the event of theft or loss.
Run-time protection
All Samsung devices are always running in a safe state, blocking any unauthorized access to the device’s kernel, in real-time.
Now there are smart IT solutions that have been security enabled due to the Knox platform. Not only that, the greatest feature of Dex, that makes it possible to use our phones as desktop is made secured by Knox.
The most useful implementation of the Knox platform are safe bio-metrics on Samsung devices and the secure folder application. Just imagine a complete set of new apps and secured data (Documents, files and media). It’s like Inception “A phone within a phone”.
So next time if someone asks you what makes Samsung devices different from other android manufacturers, proudly say SAMSUNG KNOX.
