Internet
security
Samsung
takes
a number of
steps
to protect its Internet-compatible
Sma
rt
TVs
against unauthorized
incursions
and
hacking.
For
example,
certain sensitive communications
between
the
TV
and
the Internet
servers
are
encrypted.
In
addition, the
TV's
operating
system
has
adopted controls to prevent the installation of unauthorized applications.
Although
we
take
steps
to protect your Smart
TV
and
personal
information,
no
Internet-connected
device
or
transmission
is
completely
secure.
We
therefore
encourage
you
to take additional
steps
to
safeguard
your
TV,
secure
your Internet
connection,
and
minimize the risk of unauthorized
access
.
These
steps
are
listed
below:
When
Samsung
releases
software
updates
to improve the security of your
TV,
you
should
promptly install
these
updates.
To
automatically
receive
these
updates,
turn
on
Auto
Update
in the
TV's
menu
(f!i)
>®Settings>
Support>
Software
Update>
Auto
Update).
When
an
update
is
available,
a
popup
message
appears
on
the
TV
screen
.
Accept
the software download
and
update
by
selecting
YES
when prompted.
Take
steps
to
secure
your
wireless router
and
network.
Your
router's manual
should
provide
additional details
abou
t
how
to implement the
following
measures:
-
Secure
your
wireless
router's management setti
ngs
with a unique
password
to prevent unauthorized
cha
n
ges
to security
related
settings.
- Implement
standard
encryption
(e.g.,
WPA2
encryption)
on
your
wi
r
eless
router to
secure
yourwireless
network
signal.
-
Secure
access
to your wireless network with a hard-to-guess
password.
- Confirm
your
router's firewall setting
is
enabled
(if
so
equipped).
-
Make
sure
that all your Internet-connected
devices
are
behind
your network's firewal
l.
- If your router
or
modem
has
a standby
mode
button, use
it
to disconnect your
home
network from the Internet
when
it
is
not
in
use.
Use
strong
passwords
for all your Internet
accounts
(Netflix,
Facebook
,
etc.).
If your
TV
has
a
camera,
recess
the
camera
into the
TV's
bezel
when
it
is
not
in
use.
Recessing
the
came
ra
makes
it
inoperative.
If
any
unexpected
messages
appear
on
your
TV
screen
requesting
permission
to link a
devic
e or e
nable
a remote
session,
do
NOT
accept.
Do

suspicious
web
sites
and

not install
any
suspicious
programs.
We
recommend
that

install only
those
authorized
apps
provided

Samsung
through
Samsung
Smart
Hub.
