For those without a samsung it's basically an encrypted sandbox environment.
sure its not perfect but it is a good way to wall of a private environment for yourself.
This is my own conclusion after owning several Galaxy devices and eventually giving up trying to get them secure. At this point, they can't be trusted more than Xiaomi or Huawei.
I was determined not to have a Samsung account to use the phone, so I never got try it out, but I assume that anyone with access to the Samsung account have access to the secure folder
That’s the explanation HNers gave to me last time I pointed this out regarding some iCloud features.
How about companies stop adding backdoors to security features with the excuse of “data safety”?
