Ok so here is the story, I have a samsung phone and i found two sus apps, First one is “AppCloud” which is pre-installed on Samsung phones in the Middle East by Israel to spy on Samsung users in that region as you can see here, Second one is the famous “Android System SafetyCore” by Google, The problem is both of them are system apps and my device is not rooted and I am really afraid to mess with anything that may result in destroying my phone accidentally, Any advices?

If both apps are not system critical, you can either remove them with ABD, for installation, have a look here.
Or you go the way via Shizuku and Canta, require a little more reading, but it works perfectly.
I freed an Xiaomi device from Bloatware.

In general, Auditor from GrapheneOS might help you scan for malware. However, in this case, both apps come preinstalled on your phone, so if you’re really that suspicious you might be interested in just buying a Pixel, getting GrapheneOS, and checking the verified boot hash.
