Samsung Project Infinity is an operation to safeguard Galaxy devices run by the Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) task force along with the RED, BLUE and PURPLE Teams.
The teams go beyond lab conditions to identify real-world dangers and protect Galaxy's internal infrastructure, safeguarding customer data and employee information.
CTI is dedicated to identifying potential threats and stopping hackers from taking control of your device by staying on top of the latest risks.
To identify potential threats and deploy countermeasures, CTI regularly explores the Deep Web and the Dark Web – markets for security exploits, spyware, malware, ransomware, illicit tools and confidential corporate and customer information.
The RED and BLUE teams plug vulnerabilities, while PURPLE acts as both aggressor and protector to ensure the security of critical areas, key features of Galaxy devices.
Samsung Project Infinity also runs the Samsung Mobile Security Rewards Program, which offers cash incentives for people who identify vulnerabilities.
While Samsung internally identifies and addresses weaknesses, it also collaborates regularly with partners, carriers, service providers, chipset vendors and the wider community.
Beginning with the Galaxy S24 series, Samsung has been offering up to seven years of mobile security updates, making it one of the longest periods of security support available for mobile devices.
This ongoing effort to keep users safe means that any notification from a Samsung update represents a commitment to keeping your data secure.
So, the next time you see a Samsung update, don't hesitate to hit 'install' and continue your online journey with peace of mind, knowing that there's a whole team looking out for you.
