The update will roll out as part of the One UI6 update.
According to Samsung,
“We constantly strive to keep our users safe from security attacks, and with the introduction of Auto Blocker users can continue to enjoy the benefits of our open ecosystem, knowing that their mobile experience is secured”.
Once enabled, the auto blocker will protect your device from sideloading an app. It simply means that you will not be able to install applications from unknown sources. The installation of apps from unrecognized app stores will be blocked.
One thing you will love about the Auto Blocker is that it will protect your device from potential malware and also enforce apps security.
It will also safeguard against harmful installations over USB - especially important if you are using a public USB cable for charging. Auto Blocker brings an update to Message Guard - the service that mitigates Zero Click attacks or direct image messages with malicious code.
Auto Blocker is available now on Samsung Galaxy devices compatible with One UI 6.
