Samsung Knox Explained - Is It Really Safe?

Today we take a deep dive into Samsung Knox - Samsung’s homegrown security system that comes aboard some of their devices.
Samsung Knox is more than just an antivirus or a file security app - it is a set of hardware and software features that work in tandem to keep the phone and it’s data secure!

Finally someone is talking about knox. This addition was soo underated man. Tks ash

Many youtubers have already talked about knox since many years I think u just follow only one guy

What a crystal clear video and very enlightening video

[@krtkks]

Personally I feel Knox is a really great feature, and can be considered while buying a new phone, since it is only present in Samsung phones and we all know that Samsung has really upgraded their smartphone game, & are providing really impressive phones.

[@kevinfernando]

People keep telling me I look like you. Came here to check, stayed for the content. Love it!

[@educational-101]

I love Knox. When I was working for the government last year I was able to have a work profile that kept all my work profiles, apps etc completely away from my normal phones operation for my day to day use.

[@aritradeb6856]

Great video! Data privacy aspects are rather an under appreciated topic these days, unfortunately. But great video. Maybe you can compare Knox, Secure Enclave and the Titan M chip in one video. That would be so helpful! 💙

[@navneetrathi3930]

Would have been good if explained more about how they protect.

[@therodesova]

Hello I want to ask about Know. My company offered me new Samsung phone with Knox. The phone allows to have 2 sections: private part ( runned by my google account) and also company part (secured by knox, runned by company account). My question is: Can company see what is in private part of the phone? Can they go true the content of my private section of the phone since the phone is actually theirs? Thx.

I am not first 😂 Everything aside thank you for the explanation 👍

[@anshulmittal232]

Knox is seriously a wonderful feature and an important factor for me while buying phone. However, as far as my experience is considered, I didn't really find Knox at play anywhere because it is mostly automatic in nature and works in the background. As far as the secure folder is concerned, my use with it has mostly been seamless

[@rajnish8918]

The only indian yt channel to talk abt knox. Thats why i love c4etech..

[@ZMRoshan95]

Hello my dear friend ash super video very good useful video thank you so much Good clear review

[@DeepteshLovesTECH]

Samsung Knox is actually a real deal, and that's why making custom roms and custom recovery for Samsung phones is very difficult and is almost impossible to bypass Knox without breaking it. I can say that because I used Galaxy Note 3 Neo in the past, with a really amazing for the time Hexa core Exynos 5000 processor(could run 2013's version of Asphalt 8 full speed, at max graphics), and installing Note 5 Custom ROM on it, broke the Knox trigger and flipped it to 1 and it's next to impossible to reset.

[@gitawrongtranslation-youtu9701]

Hmm

[@SD-vs4wx]

For everyone saying it's new it's not there're alot of youtubers already explained this...but informative nevertheless

[@AbdulSamad-zu6mx]

Amazing vid ash!.....can you do one about apple's security too?...

[@srajansrivastava1792]

Samsung is really great That is why their phones are a bit costly, but I am ready to pay more for that M series has McAfee security software, basic in all samsung devices

[@unggulprasojo1334]

1 question, does IT can still manage my whole phone or just apps inside knox if I install my office apps inside knox only (like IT can only manage vmware guest OS point of view as office workstation but not the host OS)?

[@kv9163]

Thanks for the video. Very informative. I heard that samsung M series phones like the M51 also has knox but it is only software based protection and there is no hardware component. Is that true.? Please Kindly clarify.

[@melvyncarrot4741]

Yes the M series Knox is only software based,only the A series onwards are hardware based which is more secure.

[@randomguy-hn2ny]

How do I get to know whether my phone has built in hardware Knox or just the software? Is ther some kind of list I could check out? Nice video btw.

Lovely content to watch for Samsung Flagship but is this Knox security does secure all apps which are not in secure folder?

[@batsywatsy]

You can use any app that is downloaded on your phone in secure folder...Secure folder really been helpful to me

[@AlphizzleMusic]

Is Samsung Secure Folder via Knox a cloud? Would it be safe to put a Crypto wallet app in in the secure folder? If Secure Folder is a cloud, could the company see your screen when you access your wallet and see what you see, such as Seed words?

[@rohan7382]

Good video

[@littlemeow2309]

Hey bro i have a question. Is secure folder a part of samsung knox? Does it use knox grade security or is it a separate app

[@kajuskitchen]

Yes it does have hardware level Knox.

[@akshayvinod938]

Don't think so

[@siddhantnayak7120]

He said the other way around All m series phones have hw based knox in bootloader but not sw based that's why u don't get any knox app on m series yet u get knox logo while booting up Also using a custom rom is more secure than knox if you know what you're doing. Open source softwares are always better for privacy

[@Cocxy69]

No not hardware level. (For M series and below) Only software.

[@sreejith5966]

Don't think so they are running oneui core only

I was just wondering that should i delete my separate antivirus program from my Phone and just rely on knox in everyday use. Hyvin antivirus running on background takes a toll on battery i think..

You should be fine with any brand's stock security system as long as you download files from reliable sources. Don't really need an antivirus app which will suck up the resources!

It's software level Knox not hardware

Yep there's knox security & it's only on hardware level that's why features like S Folder & Samsung Pay are unavailable on M51. One UI Core is toned down version of One UI that means the Core one got less features.
