When someone is remotely accessing your samsung phone, can they also access your 'secure folder' remotely? Hoping for response, thanks.

Or can they view the contents of secure folder on their screen?

You mean accessing it from a pc? I don't think that's possible.

I mean from a phone, is it possible to view the content of secure folder from other phone without your phone being rooted? Thanks

Hey cmatt!

If you're worried about unsavory types getting access to your phone's private data, fret not -- you're covered by Samsung Knox!

Hey cmatt,

Knox protects your phone from most forms of attack, however the best defense against malicious attacks is still you!

Lastly, is Samsung Knox only present on secure folder? Or does it protect the whole device?

From what I know, Samsung Knox protects the whole device as long as you don't unlock your OEM and root your phone.

No they can't. They can't even remotely access it. If you're paranoid if it though, you can always change your password and turn on two factor authentication. Changing your password will automatically log out all of the device's your account is currently logged in.
