In September 2022, the Samsung S10 went over 150 days without a security patch being available. That caused my work to kick my phone off it's network. Samsung promised quarterly updates before that. So I have been burned by their broken promises. Hopefully they keep them this time.
- lopis 3y agoYour work network can tell which phones got security patches? And that's a requirement for being in the network?

- rekoil 3y agoTo be fair there are endpoint protection solutions that provide phone (instance) information that can be used to decide if the particular device is secure enough to be allowed on the network.
