Samsung has collaborated with SK Telecom for the new smartphone with a quantum encryption technology.

“All services go through an encryption-decryption process when data is stored or exchanged, and an encryption key is essential,” SK Telecom said in a post.

Additionally, the CMOS image sensor detects light (photons) emitted by LED to generate unpredictable random numbers. These random numbers are used to protect user’s personal information.
