Under increasing pressure from a society that doesn't like having almost no privacy, it's clear that operating system manufacturers are trying to accommodate their conditions. Apple it's already started and that's the team iOS has default data encryption. The same was presented by Google at the last conference. This means that Android L will already have default data encryption.
In order not to say that there was no such possibility until now, it must be said that Google has been thinking about this since Android 3.0 Honeycomb. However, until now this option was natively turned off and that caused a lot of people not to turn it on because they didn't know what it was and even more people didn't know that something existed. That's why Google decided to make it a standard.
But the best news we got was that the encryption key will be stored on the device, which means that in order for the NSA or other government agency to get the keys, they would have to have physical access to the device. Therefore, it will not be possible to share these keys with them. You must have heard about the case with the government organization NSA (National Security Agency). It had a great and not exactly positive response from people, and therefore it is not surprising that in the near future we will see a lot of security measures of various types.
