It appears that Samsung has had enough of its devices getting leaked ahead of official launches. After firing Samsung employees for leaks the company has now decided to take stringent measures to minimize the risks of something like this happening in the future.
Sources reported that Samsung has strengthened its security in response to ongoing leaks.
You can save $100 on the Galaxy S25+ right now. The promo is available at Amazon, and it's only available on the 512GB variant with Mint. Act fast and save while it lasts.
All of these leaks and rumors — and I haven’t even mentioned all of them — have told us everything there is to know about these phones. One might think this is good for publicity: that Samsung appreciates the hype train building up until the Galaxy S25 launch. But according to some reports such leaks affect stock prices as consumers can share premature reactions to unreleased devices.

While some folks think that firing the employees involved in the Galaxy S25 Plus leak might have been a bit extreme, the company is just getting started. Samsung plans to lay off a lot more employees before the end of this year.
A spokesperson for the company reached out to me as well and let me know that some of the reports about Samsung Foundry were false. If true then it’s easy to see how exaggerated rumors can harm the company’s business. However the mass layoffs currently happening at Samsung don’t paint a very positive picture in my eyes.
It’s unclear how severe the security upgrades Samsung is looking to undertake will be. Renowned industry tipsters like Reve, Ice Universe and others might also be impacted by these security measures. If there is one positive outcome that I can see it’s that people won’t unnecessarily get hyped for something that may turn out to be completely fabricated.
Then again Samsung might realize that the leaks did in fact bring in a lot of attention and may secretly relax internal security after a while.
