    Hello,

    I am only an F-Secure user. Only my own thoughts.

    I need to know about my samsung galaxy watch 4 can also be protected by F- Security?

    Not at the moment.

    For example, F-Secure Internet Security (previously known as F-Secure SAFE) supported platforms are listed there:

    as "Windows 7 SP1 (support ends in August 2023); Windows 8.1; Windows 10; Windows 11; macOS 11 (Big Sur) or later; iOS 14 or later; Android 8.0 or later" and *(Windows) ARM-based tablets are not supported.

    Since Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 operating system is "Wear OS 3" (based on web search results) - it is not possible to install any current F-Secure solution. At least, officially and with full support.

    I don't know If there is "Google Play Market" in WearOS; and, so, if any F-Secure app listed as supported there - good to know your feedback about.

     If you have it how do I use it.

    At the time, F-Secure SENSE router was an option (F-Secure SENSE Router has reached end of sales - F-Secure Community); With its design (F-Secure SENSE | F-Secure VIP) - things like smartwatch - can be with an extra security layer, at least, in your home network.

    Now, I do not think there is any 'way' to provide extra protection for "Samsung Galaxy Watch 4" by F-Secure solution.

    If you dont what to do then?

    Be careful by installing third-party watch apps.

    Do use some security applications on your main Android devices (if it is synced with watch).

    Check that any settings, options, functionality or features in OS are not dangerous for your privacy.

    Also take an advantage over all available security options provided by Google account / Wear OS. Better to use most of them.

    Thanks!
