More than three years Android offers users encryption, with keys that are stored on the devices so

Phones and tablet with the latest version of Android "Lollipop" will not have encryption turned on by default, despite the promise that in September last year, the manufacturer of the software. On older versions of Android data encryption is an optional feature.
Google's site ZDNet confirmed his decision to withdraw from the earlier given promises to encrypt data to be part of the activation process, but the company did not state reasons for its decision. The default encryption is left for future versions of the mobile operating system.
More than three years Android offers users encryption, with keys that are stored on the devices so that the authorities can not provide access to data. However, there are few users who can include this option, experts say, so that the default encryption ensure that it is used by people who are unaware of this possibility.
A month after the announcement karmin of the default encryption, in a post on the company blog, Google karmin has confirmed that encryption be included with the first turning on devices with encryption keys, which remains on the device.
The decision of the company's default enkripiciji was in response to the discovery of Edward Snowden, particularly karmin because Google, along with other technology companies karmin was the goal of the US intelligence agency NSA.
However, as things stand now, older devices karmin upgraded karmin to the new Android operating system, as well as new Lollipop devices, do not have encryption turned on by default. Website ArsTechnica published yesterday that Samsung Galaxy S6 with the latest version of Android, also has no default encryption.
Google did not comment on this, but the company in Android Compatibility Definition Document (pdf) set a clear recommendation that the encryption is "supposed" to be included when the unit is first turned on. It is expected that this "should" in future versions of Android changed to "shall".
Although not entirely clear why Google changed its decision, Ars Technica writes that the default encryption device causes serious problems in the unit, and that is why manufacturers of devices given additional time to prepare your hardware for this change.
