Heya It's me again reporting some more information from Samsung.

Samsung Electronics today announced that Samsung KNOX 2.6, Samsung's built in defense grade security that is ready for work right out of the box, received the most "Strong" ratings of any mobile security platform in the report "Mobile Device Security: A Comparison of Platforms" from Gartner, Inc.. The report, published on April 6, 2016 compared the core OS security features built into twelve mobile device platforms as well as enterprise management capabilities.

Gartner notes, "Security professionals must make informed decisions about deploying management software or mobile security apps, or whether they can rely on the various devices' security controls.  This assessment focuses on the security requirements that apply to mobile devices and compares the most popular mobile device platforms with respect to these requirements."

"Samsung prides itself on providing end-to-end solutions that are secured at the core" said Injong Rhee, Executive Vice President and Head of R&D, Software and Services, Mobile Communications Business at Samsung Electronics.  "In today's mobile-first environment, data privacy and protection are the integral components of all mobile applications and services, and KNOX is a ready-made hardware-vaulted security platform on which many mobile applications can be built with strong security and privacy protections on Samsung smartphone hardware.  We're proud that Gartner has evaluated KNOX with the 'Strong' ratings in many aspects of security features."

Gartner gave Samsung KNOX the most "strong" ratings of any platform for Corporate Managed Security.  Samsung KNOX is also the only platform with "strong" ratings for every security control listed in the Corporate Managed Security category according to the report. We believe this highlights Samsung's industry leading position in categories such as Authentication Methods, Encryption Management, Jailbreak/Root Protection and App Vetting.

Samsung KNOX provides enterprise-ready devices with built in defense grade security, right out of the box. Anchored in the device's hardware, Samsung KNOX protects the device from the moment it boots up all the way through launching an app. KNOX 2.6 is the latest version of Samsung's mobile security platform, available on the Galaxy S7 and S7 edge devices. The KNOX 2.6 security platform is also optimized for Android 6.0 Marshmallow, which contains a number of features that enhance security and user productivity.

Samsung Electronics Awarded 2016 Creative Marketer of the Year by Cannes LIONS

Hey I wanted to share some exciting news from Samsung.

Samsung Electronics was recognized as the most creative marketer of 2016 by the Cannes LIONS International Festival of Creativity, the largest gathering of worldwide creative communications professionals and advertisers. The "Creative Marketer of the Year" award is awarded to companies that have made creative and meaningful strides in marketing.

Terry Savage, Chairman, Lions Festivals, said, "When you look at Samsung's wins at Cannes Lions, even just last year, what strikes you is the diversity of Lions that they are taking home through their overarching commitment to creativity. They're excelling across the board, including in areas such as healthcare communications, craft and branded content, as well as picking up a Titanium Lion."

Samsung has steadily refined its marketing approach to a more consumer-centric strategy, which focuses on how its products and technologies can create meaning in the lives of consumers. For example, Samsung' campaigns in 2015 include 'Look at Me' for autistic children, 'Safety Truck' for road safety, 'Every Day is Day One' for athletes, and 'Center Stage' for an enhanced consumer retail experience. To earn these prestigious honours, Samsung collaborated with world-class creative agencies including Cheil Worldwide, Leo Burnett and 72&Sunny.

"We believe that our innovations open opportunities for people to reach higher and dream bigger," said Moonsoo Kim, Executive Vice President of Global Marketing Center at Samsung Electronics. "At Samsung, enriching people's lives is at the center of everything we do, and our marketing reflects this philosophy."

The 63rd International Festival of Creativity is where the world's companies come together to challenge their creativity in advertising, publicity and marketing campaigns in many different categories. Hosted annually in Cannes, France, this year's events will be held from June 18 to 25, 2016, and will be attended by more than 15,000 delegates from over 95 countries.
