Samsung has rolled out a Secure wifi update, which keeps your data safe when you use the Internet and are connected to any network. It does this by encrypting internet traffic and blocking tracking apps.
This makes it safe to keep Internet browsing even without a public wifi address. We do not have to worry about compromising our stuff. However, this is free up to 250 MB per month, and you need to upgrade your plan to extend it and enable it on your device. Here are the following instructions.
- Open Device Settings and head over to Biometrics and Security.
- You must scroll down to find Secure wifi.
- From there, review the information and then tap on “Continue.”
- Next, you need to grant the necessary permission and tap on it to protect yourself from being exposed to the vulnerable Internet.
- Tap on Protect, and that is it!
You can download the latest version of Secure wifi here and should activate it to use it if your data is confidential. However, this feature is not supported on all Galaxy smartphones and is currently available in selected regions and carriers.
Note that Secure wifi is not supported on all networks. After enabling it, you can tweak it to allow apps not secured by Secure wifi to avoid this. You will have an app icon on your home screen and also have the option to erase personal data and leave when you are done using it.
