About Samsung My Knox
Samsung My Knox gives you protection, privacy, and productivity for your mobile work life. You can securely access your work email and business apps on your personal Samsung smartphone, and use its powerful tools to remotely find, lock, or wipe your device in the event of loss or theft.

Using My Knox, you can access your work e-mail and other business apps on your smartphone in a secure workspace. Your personal data and apps are outside this secure workspace, and they remain completely private. All data inside Samsung My Knox is encrypted, providing a secure and productive way to access confidential email and apps. Finally, all this functionality is possible without requiring support from your IT admin. 

Samsung My Knox is designed to meet demanding enterprise security requirements, so it does not work on rooted devices, or devices that have run a custom OS at any point.

Samsung My Knox creates a secure and productive space on your device 

Samsung My Knox creates a separate, secure environment on your device for all your work-related data, ensuring it doesn’t mix with your personal data. Apps outside the My Knox environment cannot access data inside it, and apps inside My Knox cannot access data outside it.

Benefits 

o Convenience – Samsung My Knox merges two devices in one by allowing you access to personal and work data on the same phone
o Easy setup – Created for working professionals, so no IT admin assistance is needed
o Powerful, free apps – Pre-loaded in Samsung My Knox
o Better security – Hardware and software security that delivers multiple protection layers for the operating system and apps
o Better privacy – Securely separates private data and apps from everyday content


The Samsung My Knox User Portal allows you to remotely manage your device 
o Find Now – If you lose your device, the Samsung My Knox User Portal can locate it via Google Maps
o Lock Device – Remotely lock your lost device to ensure no one can access it until you retrieve it

o Wipe Device – Remotely factory reset the device (all data, not just data inside Samsung My Knox)
o Lock Knox – Remotely lock the Samsung My Knox environment, rather than the entire device
