Good News, I am able to get rid of this moving blue box on lock screen by enabling the Emergency mode and disabling it.
Here are the step to follow.
1. Wake up the screen by pressing the power button
2. Press and hold the Power button so that it shows the 3 options
a. Power off
b. Restart
c. Emergency Mode
3. When the moving blue box comes on the Emergency Mode tap on that blue box
4. It asks to enable the emergency mode. To enable you will have to press power button and volume up key both simultaneously.
5. You will see the Emergency Mode enalbing screen. Once it completes 100%, you will be able to operate it normally and you disable the embergency mode now by selecting the 3 dots on the right corner.
6. By doing this your phone will recover to the original state as it was earlier and you can use it.
This did not help my boxes go away. I cannot do anything on my phone. It happened the other day and the technician couldn’t even help me but I did something to stop it myself but I don’t know what it was and right now I am charging it and it is showing the time like it usually does but if I touch it the boxes will start up again. HELP!

Guys I have solved the blue box problem 100 % legit:
There is good news and bad news:
Good news: I have found a way to troubleshoot blue box problem.
Bad news:
If your phone already had the blue box issue: my solution is useless. My solution only has instructions which if followed can solve this blue box problem when it occurs.
So, let's get to the solution:
So on many Samsung phones especially after 2016: phones are having this blue box problem.there is no doubt it will happen to your Samsung phone once in a while(it will!). So if this happens I have a solution to troubleshoot this problem.Here it is:
Go to settings>>>display>>>screensaver and choose this option called "colors".also set the screen timeout to the lowest option.when this blue box problem happens: do not touch the screen,leave it until the screen goes blank.after 2 seconds after the screen goes blank,pink and blue colors will appear on the screen (this is because we chose the "color" option under display in settings. Tapping the screen now will get you out of this blue box problem.
If you have any other problem just ask me.

This happened to me this morning, I was pressing keys trying to silence the alarm and I guess I put it into this accessibility mode (called universal switch). I have a Samsung Galaxy S8+ running Android 8 currently.
What I believe fixed it for me
Things I tried that didn't work
