Is the Knox Secure folder in samsung note 8 is risk free?

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help me!

So basically I gave my phone for screen repair to official Samsung store, and I kept all my photos in the Knox secure folder which is in Samsung. There was no photo in the normal gallery but in the Knox Secure folder. So my question is that is there any chance that the photos would be acquired in any way? Do they have the means to take out photos from the Knox security folder?

Does deleting all photos means deleted or it can be restored by anyone I sold it to?

I sold my phone and deleted all photos first. can the person again restore the photos from that ?

No , most likely it will be factory reset

Did you factory reset in settings?

Welcome to Android Central! I merged your threads, since they're essentially the same question.

If you did a factory reset, then any data that was previously on the phone would be extremely difficult to recover. Probably the only people who would have the resources for that would be law enforcement or intelligence agencies. So assuming you're not an internationally wanted criminal, you'll be fine.
