Faizel Patel, Radio Islam News – 29-10-2018<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n It takes hackers just 30 seconds to gain access to a mobile device.<\/p>\n In doing so, they not only gain access to the personal details of the user but create a pathway to their company\u2019s most sensitive data. Just ask Home Affairs Minister Malusi Gigaba.<\/p>\n In a series of tweets on Sunday morning, Gigaba says a video containing material of a sexual nature, meant only for him and his wife was stolen when his phone was hacked in 2016 or 2017.<\/p>\n To counter the attacks on their smartphones, Samsung has designed an effective measure against this danger, aptly named Knox.<\/p>\n Justin Hume, Director: Integrated Mobility for Samsung South Africa, says the world has never been more connected.<\/p>\n \u201cTherefore, strength of security has never been more critical to businesses unauthorised access to the information on a device is now just as damaging as those involving traditional computer systems.\u201d<\/p>\n Since its launch in 2013, Samsung Knox has become an award-winning and robust mobile security platform, protecting devices at every layer from hardware through software to application.<\/p>\n Hume says the Knox platform is built into Samsung smartphones, tablets, and wearables at the manufacturing stage, so it\u2019s there the moment the device is unpacked.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n
