You might have heard of hundreds of data breaches or hacking cases in recent years, with people compromising their devices’ data and other essential information. While Google has been constantly working on making its Android ecosystem more secure and reliable for years, its next OS version, Android 15, will cover all the data hacking issues with certain advanced security changes and enhancements. 

Meanwhile, Juice Jacking, the newest form of hacking, has been in the talks for a while, and Google’s Android 15 will ensure that Android smartphones are safe from this attack. Some more improved safety measures against Juice Jacking are making their way to Android 15. According to the report, Samsung could probably offer this feature to its Galaxy ecosystem with the next One UI 7.0, though, which will be based on Android 15. 

Samsung might offer a more improved Lockdown mode with One UI 7.0

It’s possible that the brand might bring a much more improved Lockdown Mode that could help to protect the Galaxy devices from the attack of Juice Jacking, as Google will be introducing the new Lockdown Mode that will significantly protect the Android devices from the extraction of data via a USB cable. 

However, Samsung Galaxy models already infuse a Lockdown Mode, but sadly, it only protects the device from being unlocked using methods such as pattern, PIN, or password. Thus, with the Android 15-based One UI 7.0, Samsung could change this situation and offer a more advanced version of the Lockdown Mode for its entire Galaxy ecosystem.
