Apple vs Samsung-final post for study case

Apple vs Samsung-final post for study case



There are many similarities between them linked to features, design, and shape. However after I have studied their security and privacy, I have discovered that although Apple has worldwide popularity related to its performance, there is nothing to dispute because I am not a user of the iOS system, but what I was interested in security has failed the test. The result of the CVE made me doubt about its security performance, the vulnerabilities were not in a small number but enormous for the fame they carry. In addition, Apple's privacy prevents users from accessing some websites due to privacy.



Although until I did this case study I thought Apple has no security competition, but Samsung surprised me, their KNOX security system only recorded three vulnerabilities and those at a low level, under 5 out of 10. In addition, Samsung uses the android system that is more permissible in accessing different websites, even allows the installation of software from unknown sources. Knox is also used by governmental organizations which makes me believe that it presents a reliable product.
 
In conclusion, after the ones listed above, as a user of the Android system, iOS didn't convince me to change my perceptions. In my opinion regarding security, Samsung is the winner.
