Samsung Auto Blocker in the just released One UI 6 was designed to prevent app installations from unauthorized sources, also known as sideloading. Users can turn on app security checks for auto-detection of potential malware while also preventing harmful commands and software installations by USB cable.
One UI 6 includes an updated Message Guard function, which prevents Zero Click attacks, or direct image messages hiding malicious code. The previous version, made for messaging apps from Google and Samsung, can now help protect users using popular third party apps. The Android 14 One UI 6 update is now available for the Samsung Galaxy 23, Galaxy S23+, and Galaxy S23 Ultra.
