Samsung has took to its Samsung Mobile Security Blog to offer details and information on its next round of monthly security updates. This latest update will include patches from both Samsung and Google.

Samsung this time around has includes all of the patches found in Google’s December Security Bulletin. Not only that, but the Korean tech giant has packaged in another nine fixes of its own. In total, this monthly security update will apply 24 fixes to the Galaxy S5, Galaxy S6, the Note 4, Note 5, Galaxy S6 Edge, Galaxy S6 Edge+, Note Edge, Tab S, and Tab S2.

Despite these monthly security updates being all about transparency, Samsung won’t be detailing some of the fixes included in order to avoid giving away unnecessary information to hackers and those who would wish to exploit devices.

These updates are rolling out right now, but some of you may not get them, as it depends heavily upon the region you’re in and the carrier you’re using. For instance, those on AT&T, Verizon, and Sprint might not get these updates for some time now, if at all.
