Samsung
takes
a number of
steps
to protect

Internet-compatible
Smart

rsi
ons

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

i
cations

Although
we
ta~e
steps
to protect
your
SmartTV
and
information,
no
Internet-connected
device
or
transmission
is
completely
secure.

therefore

safeguard
your
