What's the difference between an Android device secured by KNOX in comparison to an Android Others or Android Go device

Secured by Knox devices include a hardware-backed architecture that secures data protection during boot-up and runtime.

On the contrary, on a hardware level Android - Others and Android Go devices lack the Root of Trust keys in the Trusted Execution Environment (i.e. the "TrustZone").

Neither can these devices typically support Knox Platform for Enterprise nor by extension with the other Knox solutions.

Special workarounds need to be implemented to support them in specific Knox cloud products.
