According to Samsung, Knox Matrix is it's vision for a future wherein devices connected in an ecosystem can protect each other as well as their users. It is a comprehensive approach to security, which will become increasingly essential as more devices and aspects of lives become connected.
Knox Matrix will address this challenge through a revolutionary concept that paves the way for multi-device security for mobile phones, TVs, home appliances, and more.
Samsung devices that are empowered with Knox Matrix work to protect one another in a trusted network. If one element is compromised, Knox Matrix will isolate it from the ecosystem in order to protect the others.
There are currently three critical features of Knox Matrix that ensure its success.
- Trust Chain has devices monitoring each other for threats.
- Credential Sync secures user information as data is moved between devices
- Cross Platform SDK will enable devices on various operating systems and platforms (including but not limited to Android, Tizen, and Windows) to join Knox Matrix with consistent security standards.
This way, we can keep devices safe even in a hyper-connected world.
Knox Matrix manages all this within a private blockchain, allowing compatible devices to check each other for breaches and ensure safety with intelligent threat monitoring. With these steps in place and more features to be introduced, users will be able to enjoy multiple connected devices safely and conveniently.
