Samsung tweeted a video on their Twitter account, recommending owners of Samsung Smart TVs to perform scans for viruses and malware. Unfortunately, we could not provide the video Samsung has posted up, due to the fact that the tweet has been removed soon after.
That being said, all smart devices that are connected to the internet is susceptible to many forms of attack such as viruses, malware, unauthorised access, hacking and so on. In order to keep them safe, we highly recommend using various malware tools like Avast Mobile Security and Bitdefender Antivirus to scan your device and remove any suspecting software.
How to scan your Samsung Smart TV:
- Access General Settings
- Select System Manager
- Select Smart Security
- Press Scan
We do not know to what extent these malicious software, viruses and, other threats could affect us Malaysians. But as the saying goes, it’s better to be safe than sorry.
