Internet Security

Samsung takes steps to protect its internet-compatible projector against unauthorized incursions and hacking through encryption and controls against unauthorized applications. However, no internet-connected device or transmission is completely secure.

Samsung encourages users to take additional steps to safeguard their projector, secure their internet connection, and minimize the risk of unauthorized access. These steps include:

• Install software updates promptly. Enable Auto Update in the projector's menu (Settings > Support > Software Update > Auto Update).
• Secure your wireless access point and network: use a unique password for management settings, implement standard encryption (e.g., WPA2), and use a hard-to-guess password for network access.
• Confirm your access point's firewall setting is enabled (if applicable) and ensure all internet-connected devices are behind your network's firewall.
• If your access point or modem has a standby mode button, use it to disconnect your home network from the internet when not in use.
• Use strong passwords for all your internet accounts (e.g., Netflix, Facebook).
• Do not accept unexpected messages on your projector screen requesting permission to link a device or enable a remote session.
• Do not visit suspicious websites and do not install suspicious programs. Samsung recommends installing only authorized apps provided through Samsung Smart Hub.
