Samsung Electronics has developed a technology for the Galaxy S25 series, called Post-quantic cryptography (PQC), which uses advanced algorithms to protect itself from the potential risks that quantum computing raises to normal encryption methods and that is the first step towards the safe quantum future of Samsung Knox Matrix.
The company has recognized that quantum computing represents “one of the most transformative fields of modern technology”, because this technology offers “a capacity to solve unprecedented problems”, as explained in a press release.
He also recalled that, taking advantage of the power of quantum computers, it is possible to solve “exponentially faster” complex challenges than with traditional computing, which unlocks advances in numerous sectors, such as medicine and logistics.
With this, he has recognized that The “immense capacity for calculation” of quantum computing “entails risks.” “Since quantum algorithms have the potential to break certain encryption methods used to safeguard current data, addressing this vulnerability is essential to guarantee data protection in the future,” he added.
In this sense, it has advanced that, although quantum computing is not expected to implant on a large scale immediately, it is convenient to protect themselves from threats that are yet to come, that is, those in which the attackers collect data to decipher them with the future Quantum capacities.
To guarantee the safety of encrypted data in a world based on quantum technology and redefine defense standards, Samsung has developed PQC, following “closely” the rules recommended by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), to defend themselves of the attacks of the quantum computers.
Also, technology is incorporating improved data (EDP). Comprehensive protect the devices and networks connected by private ‘blockchain’ technology.
Currently, Samsung’s EDP function provides end -to -end encryption for user data when making backups, restoring or synchronizing personal information through Samsung Cloud. Thus, with the integration of PQC technology in Knox Matrix, another protection layer has been added, establishing and New standard for cloud safety on mobile devices.
Samsung, therefore, has stressed that “the compatibility between Knox Matrix devices will guarantee fissure and safe protection from the quantum visa for Samsung Cloud backup and the data synchronized through ‘smartphones’, televisions and Digital devices.
The technological has integrated this feature in the new Galaxy S25 serieswhich works with the ONE UI 7 customization layer. Thus, this family will be the first in the sector compatible with PQC -based cloud data protection.
