We just purchased a Samsung Smart tv. My husband tried to use the web browser and immediately a malware scare came up. Can we add it to our account as a PC or does WebRoot not protect tv's. THank you for any help you can give me.
Answer
We just purchased a Smart Tv with webtv and would like to know if we can protect it with Webroot?

While we do not have an app that you can download to your Smart TV, we are active in the IoT space and recently relased an Internet of Things product, the Webroot IoT Security Toolkit. You can read more about it in the Press Release here.@ wrote:

I am afraid that whilst WSA protects a good many types of devices a Smart TV is unfortuantely not one of them.
But perhaps, if this sort of issue becomes more widespread Webroot should consider it...:D

We're developing an API so that manufacturers of smart devices can include protection directly.
