Samsung says it wants to address all KNOX security concerns

KNOX is important. It is Samsung's master plan to take over the enterprise with a mobile security solution that lets company employees use their favorite Samsung device without the fear of compromising important data, a solution that even targets institutions like the US Department of Defense. As with all such security technologies, there will always be someone or the other that manages to find vulnerabilities and exploits that can be a danger to its users. These security concerns are often raised by researches, while at other times, some folks take the path of anonymous blog posts.

Well, Samsung has announced on the KNOX blog post that no matter how these concerns are brought to light, it doesn't want to ignore them. The company is asking anyone with concerns or anything they feel needs to be addressed to contact it directly. That's no doubt a welcome move, given the importance of KNOX for those who use it (even Google has adopted it for security on Android 5.0 Lollipop), though we're hoping Samsung can be quick to address any exploits or vulnerabilities and actually act on its new promise.
