Samsung’s New Galaxy A Series Phones Get Knox Security Vault
Samsung surprises the fan community who prefer mid-range Galaxy smartphones by adding Knox Security Vault to the new Galaxy A-series smartphones named the Galaxy A35 and Galaxy A55.
Samsung debuted its Galaxy A35 and Galaxy A55, which lack a few functionalities; for instance, Galaxy AI features and wallpaper support in AOD, but that doesn’t mean they are cheap since Samsung has offered them an extra layer of security by adding Knox Vault Security System.
Here’s the question: Knox Vault stands for what?
Back in 2013, Knox Vault came into existence, and it is a hardware-based security system that flawlessly saves all the sensitive data on your Galaxy device. The reason behind introducing the feature is just to defend against cyber threats. With this extra layer of security, only the user with the correct lock screen credentials will be able to access the data.
Knox Vault also defends device encryption keys and helps keep on-device data safe by encrypting it. This process is dedicated to the standard processor on the device, it appears more resistant to attacking and exploiting that could be attracted to the device processor. It permits the usage of passkeys as well as the rest of the other important security functionality straight on the device.
Although Samsung usually offers this Knox Vault high-security feature to its high-end flagship devices, this is the first time the brand has offered this feature to its mid-range devices. Regarding this, Samsung stated that bringing Knox Vault to more than just its flagship devices should help power the program even more in the scenario when its A-series smartphones have become some of the most popular budget-friendly Android phones on the market.
The Korean giants continue to make their efforts to enhance the Knox, plus having more gadgets to manufacture will help the massive tech brand come up with new schemes to protect its users. The Galaxy A55 and Galaxy A35 smartphones are truly for those who prefer upgraded features, but within their budget, these smartphones offer an affordable way to take advantage of Samsung’s Android ecosystem, which even includes high-end, strong security.
Meanwhile, the Korean giant has not officially revealed the pricing of both smartphones yet but is expected to be in line with pricing seen on last-generation affordable models.

In a meeting at Samsung Medical Center in Seoul, Dr. Hon Pak, SVP, and head of Samsung’s Digital Health Team discussed AI, wearables, and their ability to revolutionize healthcare.
The discussion in the meeting emerged around two key themes: first, how advancements such as generative AI could be harnessed to improve healthcare, and second, Samsung’s ability to contribute to the future of healthcare was a key focus, possibly due to their ongoing innovations.
Professor Myung Jin Chung, Director of the Samsung AI Research Center at Samsung Medical Center, highlights the necessity of “lifelog” data assembled by wearable devices for a better understanding of the patient’s medical history. According to him, the future of AI is to extract this information straight from the user’s daily life and offer a better understanding of their health status.
A cardiologist, Dr. Blum, states that it will be better to continue health monitoring through smartwatches, which is key for early disease detection. He also highlights scenarios such as high blood pressure and atrial fibrillation where previous intervention is essential. He believes that smartwatches can offer valuable data for doctors to understand the root causes of the disease whereas AI helps to analyze this data and translate it into actionable insights for patients.
A diabetes specialist, Dr. Klonoff, punctuates the growing use of glucose monitoring, not only for diabetics but also for those pursuing a healthier lifestyle. He also considers it an essential as well as powerful tool when combined with other health data such as sleep, blood pressure, and activity. It is expected that this data, analyzed by wearables and AI, could offer a better understanding of overall metabolic health.
Recent reports reveal that the South Korean giant is also working on the implementation of wearable technologies capable of reading the glucose levels of its users. Apart from this, the giant is also deciding to develop non-invasive solutions for blood glucose monitoring, which would lead the company to get ahead of its long-time rival Apple in this area.
