IoT Security Certification Trust Mark™ is Open
Verifying Baseline IoT Security and Vendors Cyber Security Claims
What is the Trust Mark?
Internet of Things (IoT) Security Certification via the IoT Security Trust Mark™ (STM) framework sets out the principles and basis for third party conformity assessment, certification and voluntary 'live' Cybersecurity Labelling Scheme (CLS) providing IoT users (Consumers) with a recognisable level of assurance that IoT provider's (vendor/manufacturer) cyber security claims about their product have been independently evaluated and conform with internationally established baseline security requirements.
The scheme itself provides a unified, internationally applicable, scalable, independent and rigorous approach to assessing the integrity of the vendor’s security claims for their IoT product and how they conform to the defined IoT Security Baseline Requirements (BR) recommendations, guidelines and codes produced by Governments and Standards bodies enabling mutual recognition.
Why IoT Security Certification?
The IoT Security Trust Mark™ addresses the risk of a lack of verified baseline security in IoT devices by:
* Enabling Consumers to have confidence that the baseline requirements and security features claimed by a vendor in an IoT product have been evaluated.
* Providing participating IoT product evaluators, independent Accredited Test Facilities (ATFs), with a governance framework for predictable, standardised and repeatable evaluation of products prior to submission to a scheme Decision Authority (DA).
* Supplying IoT Providers with a certification, voluntary 'live' label (STM QR) to demonstrate their product has passed independent evaluation of their security claims and the Baseline Requirements (BRs)
Trust Mark Application?
IoT Security Certification from the Trust Mark™ certification and Cybersecurity Labelling Scheme (CLS) covers IoT devices associated with consumers in the following sectors:
* Personal/Residential/Home
* Corporate/Business/Enterprise
* Government
* Industrial/Operational Systems
* Critical Infrastructure, and,
* Organisations of Significant National Interest
