Google adiantum is a new encryption for low-end phones

Google has already officially presented Adiantum. It is a new encryption that is launched specifically for low-end smartphones. This encryption seeks to offer protection for all users. It is launched as an alternative to AES, an encryption that we find in the mid and high range on the market. But in the low range the processor is not always compatible.

Therefore, in many cases the experience of use is not positive, because the operation is slow. With this new method, based on the ChaCha20 stream encryption, we seek to change this.

The key is that Adiantum works faster than other systems such as AES, but maintaining its security at all times. With this new encryption system, Google has thought of the low range on Android. Since these models are sold in many countries, especially in developing countries. Therefore, it is sought that these models are also safe at all times.

It is a good option for users who have a smartphone with Android Go as the operating system. Especially since they tend to be less powerful models, with little RAM. So this encryption would suit better.

Manufacturers with Android Pie will be able to activate this new Google encryption on their phones. Therefore, it is likely that the following smartphones that hit stores with this version of the operating system in the low range already use it.
