@OliverWinters Intitally it was set up for Business purposes but protects personal Devices as well, available on all Samsung Devices as has been mentioned. Basically Knox uses hardware and software safeguards to protect your Device against tampering and hacking attacks such as virusers and cyber attacks. Knox safeguards your Device ensursing your OS and data is safe.

It protects your phone personal information and keeps everything safe, if you use Samsung wallet, samsung pass (password manager). But it won't protect everything, such as if you connect to public wifi as you may need a vpn to stay on public wifi. There are a lot of knox security features on the security and privacy settings.
