Η Google has a new form of encryption called Adiantum and is designed to offer storage encryption for cheaper Appliances with Android without affecting performance.
At the moment, cheap devices such as Android smart Go smartphones, smart watches and TVs are not working as well as Google's cryptographic requirements.
With Adiantum, Google reports that every Android device can be encrypted, which means that privacy will not only be for those who can afford it.
Cryptography has long seemed to be vital to everyone as everyone wants to get more information without your consent, from criminals to advertising companies or authorities.
Adiantum is designed to encrypt the storage of an Android device, keeping your documents or files private and secure. archives that are stored in it.
Adiantum: There will be no excuse to undermine security for device performance reasons
The majority of Android hardware to date is encrypted with the AES standard, but cheaper handsets, such as those using low-cost processors, do not have AES.
Google reports that the Adiantum standard is five times faster than Android's standard AES encryption on low-power devices energys.
Adiantum is scheduled to be released with Android Q, its successor Android Pie which will be later released by 2019. But do not expect new technology to accelerate medium or high cost devices.
Google says that BEA is still the encryption standard when hardware can support it.
"Our hope is that Adiantum will democratize encryption for all devices," said Eugene Liderman, Director of Security Strategy for Google Mobile.
“Just like you wouldn't buy a phone without messages text, there will be no justification for compromising safety due to device performance. Everyone should have privacy and security, regardless of the price of their phone.”
