As the versions of Android advance, so do the options dedicated to privacy. But in addition to those that Google integrates in the native versions of Android, the manufacturers give it their own form. One of those that has taken this aspect more seriously is Xiaomi, making MIUI 12.5 the most secure layer of the company to date.
When Xiaomi presented MIUI 12.5, it was surprising that many of its novelties were focused on privacy . We live in a world in which this aspect is always in question, and manufacturers feel obliged to try to shield the personal data of users as much as possible.
Xiaomi goes overboard with security
MIUI 12.5 integrates new features in this regard, such as the function that prevents third-party applications from accessing the data copied to the clipboard, where personal data such as emails, passwords or credit card numbers are usually copied. Xiaomi also announced a keyboard encoding system, so malicious apps can’t pick up sensitive keystrokes.
Now it has been Xiaomi’s official MIUI account on the Chinese social network Weibo, which has unveiled a new function. It is a new security measure that will allow scanning the payment environment during an online transaction, to guarantee security against any security risk or attempted fraud. Although Xiaomi has not offered very detailed data, the function will be able to scan the network that carries out the transaction and warn in case of detecting something strange.
Xiaomi has shared some screenshots, which show how the user will be alerted , when they are paying in an unsafe environment and a security problem is detected. At that time, the option to continue with the payment or try to solve the problem will be offered. Likewise, all those payment applications in which the user has total confidence or simply does not want to go through the process can be unchecked.
Its implementation in MIUI 12.5
At the moment there are no details about the estimated dates for its implementation, but everything indicates that it will arrive in a next update of MIUI 12.5. The publication has taken place in the MIUI account in China, but this does not mean that we are necessarily facing a function that will be available all in that country. However, if not, if there are many ballots for it to be implemented first in China, and tested in apps with local payment processes, before its possible arrival in other markets.
