Samsung Android must be configured to enable authentication of personal hotspot connections to the device using a pre-shared key.

If no authentication is required to establish personal hotspot connections, an adversary may be able to use that device to perform attacks on other devices or networks without detection. A sophisticated adversary may also be able to exploit unknown system vulnerabilities to access information and computing resources on the device. Requiring authentication to establish personal hotspot connections mitigates this risk. Application note: If hotspot functionality is permitted, it must be authenticated via a pre-shared key. There is no requirement to enable hotspot functionality. SFR ID: FMT_SMF_EXT.1.1 #41a
