Samsung's new features will likely provide its users more control over their data stored in the Samsung Cloud. The Enhanced Data Protection for Samsung Cloud feature comes with an extra layer of security for user's data by using end-to-end encryption. It means that only the original Samsung device can decrypt the data stored in the Samsung Cloud account.

Samsung's Quick Share Private Sharing feature allows secure file sharing between Samsung devices. Users can set time limits on shared files to make them inaccessible once the timer runs out. They can also specify who can view and access the files. Recipients can only read the files and cannot distribute them further. Files are protected using blockchain-based encryption technology and screenshots are blocked for privacy. To use the feature, users should select Quick Share when sharing files and can share up to 20 files with a total size limit of 200 MB. Apple To Launch iPhone Foldable and iPad/Mac Hybrid Device With Foldable Screen by 2026: Report.
