I work on a repair shop and my job is to restore phones that the costumers forgot the password. Samsung is the only brand where I can do that and keep all the personal files of the client still there. It is completely exploitable, able to clean google account and pin lock in less than 2min, depending of the phone. I got one that had to be wiped cause of a system bug, that was funny. Huawei is a bit harder cause some phones need tespoint for it. And sincelery no phone is completely safe.

Just tested all of this on my S22.
Clipboard for example retains everything from secure session only until the session is closed (lock the space manually or wait for it to auto lock when you exit) and that data is wiped from the clipboard.
You could, if you wanted to, enable the ability for clipboard data to be retained after a secure session ends. You would have to go into your knox settings and enable it as its disabled of course by default.

knox is a joke, go write something sensible repeating it in secure folder then go on the main space and you will see how the keyboard leaks everything you type on knox, not to mention samsung keyboard keeps logs of clipboard history.
until android 9 secure folder used to have its own keyboard, now you can't do that but nobody has fixed it in over 3 years

While most companies would dismiss any country making such demands, China has leverage through number of people there. It's a huge market in itself and many companies have to do good thinking if it's worth ignoring such market and keep things for themselves or go along with it.
