Multinational tech giant, Samsung Electronics, has revealed its plans to protect its connected devices using a Samsung Knox Matrix solution.
What Announced By the firm, the official presentation of the advanced security solution that is based on blockchain technology will be unveiled at this year’s Samsung Developers Conference (SDC).
With people doing more work and getting more entertainment online through connected devices, including smartphones, smart watches and the like, the risk of threats is increasing.

The Samsung Knox Matrix solution being introduced will serve as a user-private blockchain system, in which your connected devices enhance security through multi-layer mutual monitoring. By leveraging the natural security advances offered by blockchain systems, the tech giant said it will protect users’ smart homes from unauthorized inference.
This security solution will not remove the enhanced user experience that the tech giant offers users of its connected systems and as such will make the login process very convenient.
“To protect a user’s smart home from unauthorized access and make the login process more convenient, Samsung Knox Matrix will share credentials from device to device and protect sensitive information even between trusted devices. Whether your Samsung devices are based on Android, Tizen, or another operating system, Samsung Knox Matrix will be able to provide a unified security SDK. With all of that, Samsung will continue to advance common security standards for various Samsung connected devices,” the announcement read.
Blockchain technology is being adapted for use in different ways and its acceptance has spread since technology companies to financial institutions to fashion brands. With the wide diversity of the technology, more specific use cases are likely to be introduced in the coming years.
