 When you’re at a public place, such as a coffee shop, you may want to connect to the free Wi-Fi. But before you connect, you want to be careful and make sure it’s safe. Secure Wi-Fi1 mode on your Samsung Galaxy A53 5G helps keep your connection safe. When turned on, it encrypts your Wi-Fi internet traffic and helps prevent your device from being tracked. You can also track your Secure Wi-Fi usage at any time by checking your Protection activity.

Share What You Like, Privately

You may want to send something private to your friend, but you don’t want to risk anyone else seeing it. Private Share helps prevent this. It encrypts your files, such as pictures, videos and documents, and lets you choose exactly who gets to see them and for how long. With blockchain-based encryption technology, there’s no need to worry about your files getting into the wrong hands.

For ease of access, you may want to take a picture of your credit card or ID and store it safely on your phone. You can keep your personal information safe with the A53 5G’s Secure Folder. Thanks to Samsung Knox, your private information stays secure on your device. Secure Folder even allows users to easily set up their own lock type, with options including PIN, pattern, password and fingerprint.
