Device
Criterion Value Proof(s) Comment
Known hardware tampering Rare [1] The Samsung Knox platform provides end-to-end security, from the chip to the software layer, making hardware-level tampering extremely difficult and rare.
Known vulnerabilities Very common [2] As a mainstream Android device, it is a primary target for security researchers. Consequently, vulnerabilities are discovered and reported very commonly.
Prior attacks Very common [3] The Android platform is a primary global target for malware, making attack attempts against devices running it very common.
Updatability Very common [4] The Note 20 received frequent security updates throughout its supported lifecycle (approx. 4 years). Note: Official update support effectively ended in early 2024.
Category score 3
System
Criterion Value Proof(s) Comment
Authentication with other systems Full [5] Supports all standard modern authentication protocols, allowing for secure integration with various cloud services and systems.
Communications Encrypted with up-to-date encryption [6] Supports the latest communication encryption standards of its time, such as WPA3 for Wi-Fi and TLS 1.3 for web traffic.
Storage Encrypted with up-to-date encryption [7] File-Based Encryption (FBE) is enabled by default, ensuring user data is encrypted at rest.
Category score 1
User Authentication
Criterion Value Proof(s) Comment
Account management Full [8] Provides full functionality for adding, removing, and managing permissions for Google, Samsung, and other third-party accounts.
Authentication Secure [9] Supports multiple strong authentication methods, such as ultrasonic fingerprint and PIN, which are protected by a hardware-backed security module.
Brute-force protection Exist [10] Triggers an increasing lockout delay mechanism after multiple incorrect unlock attempts, effectively preventing brute-force attacks.
Event logging Access event logged [11] The associated Google/Samsung account logs all critical security events, such as new device sign-ins, for user review.
Passwords Require change after setup with complexity requirements [12] Forces the user to create a screen lock (PIN, pattern, or password) that meets minimum complexity requirements during initial setup.
