To protect smartphones and, above all, the sensitive personal data stored on them, Google will be launching a new series of anti-theft features.Google is going to update the classic factory reset to make it virtually impossible for a thief to use this function. Indeed, when a smartphone is stolen, the first thing a thief does is to reset the device so that they can use it or sell it.

In addition, a"Private Space" will be reserved for sensitive applications. This new feature will create an area in your phone that can only be accessed with a separate access code. This will make it possible to secure certain sensitive applications and all their related data, notably anything to do with health or banking.

This new feature will use Google's artificial intelligence to detect if someone snatches your phone out of your hand and tries to run away with it on foot, on a bike or in a car.
