Samsung Electronics has announced that its new line of televisions, monitors, and commercial displays has received certification for compliance with the European Union’s Radio Equipment Directive (RED). This regulation focuses on enhancing cybersecurity features, and compliance will be mandatory starting August 1, 2025. The evaluation was conducted by TÜV SÜD, a prestigious certification entity in the industry.
Taeyong Son, Executive Vice President of the Visual Display business at Samsung, emphasized the importance of improving security in a context where concerns about this issue are becoming increasingly common. “We are committed to introducing innovations with advanced security technology worldwide, thereby reinforcing customer trust in our solutions,” Son stated during the certification ceremony.
The RED, which has been in effect since 2016, sets essential requirements for safety, electromagnetic compatibility, and efficient spectrum use for devices that utilize radio. In an effort to enhance protection against cyber threats, the European Union expanded security regulations under this directive in 2022, introducing new measures aimed at safeguarding personal data and reducing fraud risks.
The TÜV SÜD certification covers Samsung’s entire line of visual display products for the European market for the 2024-2025 period. This includes not only televisions and monitors but also digital signage and Color E-Paper. The company is expanding its compliance process to include all relevant product lines, which is part of its global regulatory preparedness strategy.
This approach to regulatory compliance highlights Samsung’s ongoing commitment to the safety of its products. In 2024, the company’s cryptographic module, Samsung CryptoCore, achieved FIPS 140-3 certification from the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology. Furthermore, starting in 2025, this module is expected to be integrated into Tizen OS, the operating system used by Samsung smart TVs, thereby enhancing the protection of its key product lines.
Finally, it’s important to mention that Samsung’s smart TVs include the Samsung Knox security platform, which has maintained Common Criteria (CC) certification annually since 2015, further solidifying the company’s leadership in consumer device security.
