Samsung, consider implementing password protection if someone wants to open Device admin apps option. Just like users need to input device pattern/pin or password to view developer options, users should be prompted to input device credentials, not biometrics, in order to view and make changes to device admin app(s). If I give someone to use my phone for a minute they can use the option to delete or deactivate a device admin app that enforces securely rules for the said device, arguably weakening the security of the device. Although security of Samsung phones is strong, some menus should be password protected. Thanks.

In my opinion, I think the whole thing should be password protected, as in settings/security

Security options like device admin apps, find my mobile, etc. should be behind locked menu. If I lend my phone for a minute, someone can turn off fing my mobile in those settings since they are not restricted.
