Internet
security
Samsung
takes a number of
steps
to protect its Internet-compatible Smart
TVs
against unauthorized
incursions
and
hacking.
For
example,
certain sensitive communications
between
the
TV
and
the
Internet
ser
v
ers
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
Sam
sung
releases
software updates to i
mprove
the security ofyourTV,
you
should
promptly install these
updates.
To
automatically
receive
these
updates,
turn
on
Auto
Update
in the
TV's
menu
(e
>@Settings >
Support>

When
an
update
is
available, a
popup
message
appears
on
the
TV
screen
.
Accept
the software download
and
update
by
selecting
YES
when
prompted.
Tak
e
steps
to
secure
your
wireless router
and
network.
Your
router's manual
should
provide additional details about
how
to implement the
following
measures
:
-
Secure
your
wireless
router's management settings with a unique
password
to prevent unauthorized
changes
to security related settings.
-
Implement
standard encryption
(e
.
g.
,
WPA2
encryption)
on
your wi
reless
router to
sec
u
re
your
wireless
network
signal.
-
Secure
access
to your wireless network with a hard-to-guess
password.
- Confirm

router's firewall setting
is
enabled
(if
so
equipped).
-
Make
sure
that all your
In
ternet-connected
devices
are
behind
your network's firewall.
-
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,
Face
book,
etc.).
If
your
TV
has
a
camera,
recess
the
camera
into the
TV's
bezel
when
it
is
not
in
use.
Recessing
the
camera
makes
it
inoperative.
• If
any
unexpected
messages
appear
on
your
TV
screen
requesting
permission
to link a
device
or
enable
a remote
session,
do
NOT
accept.
• Do not visit
suspicious
web
