Samsung has a Knox security platform that protects all the data within the secure folder. The folder is encrypted and safe. This tiny space on your phone acts as a brand new device where you may add apps and all other files privately. You’ll need to use a password to access files within this folder.

But, if you forget the password to the Secure Folder, you may still reset it anytime.
