With the increasing reliance on our tablets and smartphones for various personal and professional tasks, the need to protect our data has become more critical than ever. Samsung has recognized this and offers a feature called “Secure Folder” on its Galaxy Tab S9 and S9 Ultra.
A secure folder is essentially a secure, private area on your device where you can store apps, photos, files, and more. The contents of this folder are protected by robust security measures like encryption and biometric authentication (fingerprint, face recognition, or a PIN).
