Google announced on October 9 the new generation of Pixel phones, which did not come from the design that distinguishes them from the existing smart phones. However, it has some internal features that make it highly secure.
Google is proud that security has always been a top priority for Pixel phones, both hardware and software, citing monthly security updates and annual operating system updates. "Pixel phones have the most secure Android versions , As well as Google Play Protect to help protect your phone from malware. "
Last year, Pixel 2 phones included a dedicated security module to protect the lock screen and enhance disk encryption. With the new Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL, the company added Titan M, a corporate security chip designed to protect sensitive information and operating system.
In a new publication on its blog, Google said that Titan M offers some of the best advantages of the Titan chip that it uses to protect its Cloud Cloud data, but it is different as it is specifically designed for mobile devices.
The company explained how the Titan M protects your phone and starts protection from the moment the device is turned on. It helps bootloader, a program that verifies and loads Android when running the phone, to make sure that the correct version of the Android system is running.
Google said the Titan M chip stores the latest known secure version of Android to prevent hackers from running an older version of the system in a way that weakens the security of the device.
Titan M also protects your phone by ensuring that phone penetration is prevented from the lock screen by compromising the password guess. It also prevents data access on the phone. The chip has the ability to protect third party applications, especially financial applications.
If a hacker is able to access the Titan M chip program and tries to update it for hacking, it will not be able to do so without entering a password entered by the same user.
