A New Standard in Secure Communications for Governments and Businesses Is Set by Samsung’s Knox Native Solution
Samsung Knox Native Solution expands safe choices for international businesses and authorities by offering government-grade protection without the need for third-party add-ons.
Samsung Electronics announced that the German Federal Office for Information Security, or Bundesamt für Sicherheit in der Informationstechnik (BSI), has certified Samsung Knox Native Solution, a platform that facilitates quick and simple secure communications designed for businesses and government agencies. The Knox Native Solution, which was developed in close cooperation with the BSI, provides enhanced security to satisfy very strict criteria by establishing a dedicated, secure environment on mobile devices. Samsung maintains its position as a world leader in cybersecurity solutions with certifications from a wide range of international government agencies, including those in Australia, Canada, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
Samsung’s trusted role in providing secure, integrated solutions that satisfy the high standards for government and enterprise use is further reinforced by the Knox Native Solution’s official recognition for government use from a prominent European security body. Additionally, this accreditation reaffirms Knox Native Solution as a globally applicable model for businesses, particularly those in vital sectors like public transportation or energy infrastructure, or those looking for dependable, strong, and deployable security for mobile communications that are optimized.
Security Created in Partnership with the BSI
In the past, using external SD cards, extra software, and several PINs to achieve government-grade secure mobile communication on Android-based smartphones was frequently necessary. This led to a laborious manual procedure that was expensive and involved lengthy approval cycles for security solutions. The process would get even more complicated if third-party security updates were to demand re-certification of the entire device. Samsung worked with the BSI, which is regarded as the premier organization for security certifications and policy in Europe and important international sectors, to address these issues. Together, they created a government-grade, pre-configured system that satisfies Germany’s strict security requirements and establishes the benchmark for safe gadgets and solutions globally.
The embedded Secure Element (eSE), which combines the BSI Java Card Applet and is certified at the industry-leading Common Criteria Evaluation Assurance Level (CC EAL) 6+, is one of the cutting-edge aspects of this creative platform. Data integrity, real-time threat protection, and encrypted storage for sensitive communication channels are all made possible by Knox Native Solution’s creation of a specific security zone inside the device with eSE. Because this platform is integrated within the device itself, it eliminates the need for third-party apps or add-ons, allowing for a tamper-resistant security environment for essential features like calendaring, contacts, and email.
Mobile experiences that are secure and seamless
Samsung Galaxy smartphones are the first in the Android ecosystem to successfully exceed the stringent security standards of the BSI using eSE, further solidifying Knox Native Solution’s position as the new industry standard for mobile security. By removing the need for intricate configurations and guaranteeing high security requirements, Knox Native Solution helps enterprises to deploy secure devices in a few simple steps.
Using the built-in safeguards for data-at-rest, data-in-use, and data-in-transit that Samsung Knox offers, this solution maintains a simplified user experience without sacrificing security. Users and administrators alike will find improved security to be straightforward thanks to a single PIN activation that covers a variety of work scenarios and seamless integration of company-owned apps via the Knox Native Solution SDK.
By requiring only recently updated apps to be assessed and approved, Knox Native Solution reimagines security evaluation procedures on Samsung Galaxy devices for German government and enterprise, providing customers with mobile solutions that are both cost-effective and optimized. Knox Native Solution gives businesses centralized control over their security requirements by streamlining creation and evaluation with pre-approved security features. This allows Knox Suite to effectively manage even huge device fleets with high security standards. Samsung, a well-known and reliable supplier of secure mobile solutions to German government agencies, is dedicated to providing enterprises all over the world with reliable and smooth mobile security.
Sustained Faith in an Ultra-Connected World
Samsung’s ability to satisfy strict government requirements is demonstrated by this BSI accreditation, which serves as an example of how businesses and governments worldwide may embrace safe, integrated mobile solutions. Samsung intends to extend Knox Native Solution’s accessibility to further areas in order to build on its success in Germany and further solidify its position as a world leader in safe, interconnected mobile environments.
