Samsung's operating system is a complete security chaos

[OyaYansa]

You may not know Tizen OS, because it is an operating system that is not too widespread yet. It is the alternative created by Samsung in response to Android, and according to a computer security researcher, is also a nest of malware.

This operating system presents dozens of critical vulnerabilities, calls like Zero Day Exploit or Day zero vulnerability. It consists of a programming error that allows any hacker to execute code remotely, a good way to gain complete control of a device.

Amihai Niederman, the Israeli expert who has discovered all these errors, warns about the safety of Tizen OS and the devices that equip it. Mostly they are Smart TV from Samsung, tremendously vulnerable to remote hacking.

It is also present in other things Internet devices, like smartwatches, refrigerators or vacuum cleaners with operating system. It would not be the first time malware has taken control of these devices to sow chaos on the Internet.

"It's the worst code I've ever seen" are the words Niederman refers to as Samsung's alternative to Android, whose developers do not seem to have spent too much time creating a totally secure OS.

So lightly seems to have written its code that even the Tizen OS application store has to do and undo on the system at will, a gateway too tempting for apps that contain malicious code.

According to the alarmist, several months ago he tried to contact Samsung to solve all these errors, but still has not gotten a response from the brand, which seems focused on promoting their latest products, such as For example the Samsung Galaxy S8.
