This move reinforces the company\u2019s focus on user safety and data protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The company revealed that the updates include enhanced security tools for Galaxy devices. These tools aim to protect users in high-risk situations, such as theft or robbery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Samsung\u2019s new Theft Protection suite builds on standard Android <a href=\"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/?s=security\">security<\/a>. It includes features designed to protect data even if the device&#8217;s PIN is compromised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Key updates include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Theft Detection Lock: Uses AI to detect motion like snatching and locks the screen instantly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Offline Device Lock: Automatically locks the screen if the phone is offline for too long.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Remote Lock: Lets users lock a stolen phone remotely using their number and a quick verification step.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Samsung also introduced new anti-robbery features. One of them, Identity Check, requires biometric authentication in unfamiliar locations. This adds extra protection when a PIN may have been exposed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another feature, Security Delay, enforces a one-hour wait time if someone tries to reset biometric data. This gives users time to lock the stolen device using another connected device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These features are now available on select Galaxy smartphones. Devices include the Galaxy S24 series, Z Fold6, Z Flip6, Z Fold5, Z Flip5, S23, and S22 series. Samsung reported that more devices will receive the update throughout the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The company continues to urge Galaxy users to activate these tools for smarter and stronger protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Samsung has announced the rollout of new anti-theft features with [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":58,"featured_media":98617,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1595,9621],"tags":[1051],"contributor":[9732],"class_list":["post-98615","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cybersecurity","category-emerging-technologies","tag-vendors","contributor-news-desk"],"featured_image_src":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/samsung-16.jpg","author_info":{"display_name":"Lubna","author_link":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/author\/lubna\/"},"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/98615","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/58"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=98615"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/98615\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/98617"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=98615"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=98615"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=98615"},{"taxonomy":"contributor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/contributor?post=98615"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
