Enhanced Data Protection: Defend Your Privacy

Worried that your photos, bank account information, or other private data might get leaked if your
Phone is lost or stolen? Huawei Phones now feature security chips in addition to the combined
protection provided by the trusted root key and lock screen password. Whether your data is stored in
a microSD card or internal storage, it will receive the highest level of protection.
Stronger encryption and safeguards: Huawei Phones use a hardware key that cannot be used to
decrypt data when separated from the Phone. Based on the trusted root key, the encrypted
components are incorporated into the memory control chip to enhance the data protection capability
of the hardware. This works together with your lock screen password to protect your private data.
When you use PrivateSpace, Multi-user, encrypted microSD files, or other features to encrypt photos,
personal information, or other personal data, the only way your data can possibly be decrypted is if
the trusted root key, lock screen password, and security chip are simultaneously cracked.Not all
devices support microSD cards.
