Device authentication from Tizen Web app

Device authentication from Tizen Web app

BY 21 Apr 2018 Web Application Development

I am developing a Tizen Web app for Samsung TV.

When the app talks to my service, I want to make sure the request is actually from my app on the Samsung TV.

Does Samsung provides any kind of device authentication service to support this use case?

I could embed a secret in my app and use it for authentication, but I would have to protect the secret really well so that it never exposes.

If Samsung can provide any kind of device authentication service, I think that’s a better solution.
