By extending support for security updates delivered on a monthly or quarterly basis,1 Samsung is giving users peace of mind knowing their data is protected for as long as they use their Galaxy device.
Leading the Way in Mobile Security
Samsung prides itself in offering unmatched security to its users with Samsung Knox, its defence-grade security platform and cutting-edge technologies such as the industry’s strongest security chip, the embedded Secure Element (eSE);2 a Secure Processor to protect against physical attacks; and the recently introduced Knox Vault, which adds another layer of security.
By embedding security across every single layer of its devices, from the chip all the way up to the apps, Samsung can protect personal information in real-time and pre-emptively respond to increasingly advanced mobile threats.
Securing Over 130 Models
Over the past decade, Samsung has made significant progress in streamlining and speeding up its regular security updates.
Samsung remains committed to offering security updates as quickly as possible to always stay one step ahead and keep its users safe.
A Collaborative Approach to Mobile Security
Samsung believes openness and collaboration are critical to offering the best mobile experiences that people can trust.
Samsung has worked closely with over 1,000 partners to establish security standards for all Android devices, including the first-of-its-kind regular security update program in 2015.
