Members of the Samsung Galaxy S23 series are coming with Samsung Message Guard, a very important feature in terms of security. Samsung Message Guard will only be available in the Samsung Galaxy S23 series for now. But it will be brought to other Galaxy phones and tablets via One UI 5.1 in the future. So what is Samsung Message Guard? Samsung Message Guard focuses on protecting people against message-based attacks. Specifically, a protection wall is built here against attacks carried out without people being aware of it.

According to the statement, attackers add malicious code to a photo/image and send it as a message to your phone. This code can infect your device before you even open the picture/photo or message. Message Guard, which is said to eliminate this very dangerous situation, works specifically for “Samsung Messages” and “Messages by Google” applications. Samsung states that the attack has not yet reached Galaxy devices, but they want to take an early step because it is a big risk.
The company uses a “virtual quarantine” or “virtual wall” infrastructure in the process. So even if the malware arrives with messages inside the phone, it cannot get out of the messages. This completely eliminates the risk of the phone being hacked. According to Samsung, one in every three consumers worldwide has been the victim of a data breach in which their personal information was accessed. Data breaches are becoming increasingly common, Samsung says, adding that “this rate more than tripled between 2013 and 2021.”
The Pause USB Power Delivery feature will prevent the device from heating up
Members of the Samsung Galaxy S23 series bring some other software and hardware-oriented features. For example, last week it was revealed that the phones have The Pause USB Power Delivery feature. This feature, which is located in the Game Booster settings, focuses directly on the charging process.
If the Galaxy S23 models are charged with this feature turned on, it transfers the energy directly to the processor, bypassing the battery. So, if the game is played while the phone is charging, the battery is not loaded on the battery. Thus both reducing the temperature inside the phone and extending the battery life.
