Samsung Electronics has introduced a new Samsung AI Security suite, featuring advanced mobile protection for its upcoming smartphones. These features will be available with devices running on One UI 8. These updates are designed to strengthen user privacy for on-device AI, enhance security in connected devices, and prepare for next-generation cyber threats with advanced quantum-resistant encryption.
Stronger AI privacy with Keep.
One of its biggest features is a new system called Keep (Knox Enhanced Encrypted Protection). Keep is designed to protect sensitive data used by individual AI features. It creates a separate encrypted space on the device where each app stores only its own data. This means apps cannot access each other’s information.
Keep works alongside Samsung’s Personal Data Engine (PDE) to keep your private information—daily habits, preferences—on your device. Not in the cloud. That means features like Now Brief and Smart Gallery Search run smoothly, pulling from data that stays put. No need to send personal details elsewhere. For more security, Samsung brings in Knox Vault. It is hardware-based. Built to guard your data from tampering or unauthorized access. Simple. Direct. Secure.
By embedding privacy directly into the system architecture, KEEP delivers a better AI experience without compromising data security. Samsung is moving privacy beyond just a user setting to a core design principle of its technology.
Better security on all devices with Knox Matrix.
As Samsung devices become more connected, the Knox Matrix system is being upgraded. With One UI 8, if a Galaxy device experiences a problem due to hacking or system changes, it can be automatically signed out of the user’s Samsung account. This helps prevent threats from spreading to other devices connected to the same account.
Users also get alerts on all their devices and can view any issues on a new page called “Security status of your devices.” Even on older devices with limited updates, a warning will appear if something looks suspicious. This system gives users more visibility and control over the security of their entire Galaxy ecosystem.
Quantum-resistant Secure Wi-Fi
Samsung is making its Secure Wi-Fi even stronger by adding quantum-resistant encryption to improve network security. This new technology is designed to protect users from hacking methods that may come in the future with the advancement of quantum computing.
This approach is known as “collect now, decrypt later. ” Hackers grab encrypted data today. They hold on to it, waiting. Their goal? To crack it open when quantum computers grow strong enough. Samsung’s new encryption system steps in here. It aims to block this attack. Your data stays protected—now and down the line.
Secure Wi-Fi already protects users in public places like airports and cafés. Now, it’s getting even stronger:
• Auto Protect activates automatically in risky environments.
• Enhanced Privacy Protection (EPP) encrypts and anonymizes online traffic.
• Security Activity shows which apps and networks were protected and how much data was protected.
Key security measures remain strong
With these new devices, Samsung continues to improve its fundamental security:
• Knox Vault keeps sensitive data (passwords, PINs, biometrics) isolated from the main system.
• Auto Blocker protects against unwanted app installations and silent (zero-click) threats.
• AI Intelligence settings help users turn off online data processing and keep all information secure on the device.
• Advanced Theft Protection provides additional security in the event of theft, using tools such as ID checking and a time delay before allowing access.
Samsung’s message- Trusted security
Samsung’s new updates show a steady, thoughtful approach to mobile security. The landscape shifts; their focus remains. Personalized AI features. Quantum-safe encryption. Tools designed for today’s risks and tomorrow’s unknowns. Simple goal: keep users protected as technology evolves.
Privacy is not an afterthought. It is embedded at every step. Samsung places user control at the core, not on the sidelines. The result? A future for mobile security that grows more intelligent and more secure for all.
