Answering your questions

  • What is IoT?

    IoT refers to the network of connected physical devices that can communicate and exchange data. It enables remote control and monitoring of these devices, leading to increased efficiency and new services.

  • What are the types of IoT

    Consumer: Devices used in homes, wearables, and consumer electronics. 

    Industrial: Industrial and manufacturing environments, often involving sensors in equipment. Have your industrial control system tested against international standards like IEC 62443. 

    Medical: Applications supporting healthcare, such as devices that monitor patient vitals and health.

     Automotive: Connected vehicles that leverage IoT sensors to track performance and location.

  • What is the key regulatory and compliance for IoT?

    The key regulatory and compliance factors that are critical for IOT security include:

    • Common Criteria certification to demonstrate the security assurance of IOT devices.
    • Compliance with cybersecurity requirements under the Machinery Regulation.
    • UK PSTI: Ensuring connected consumer products meet mandatory security standards, including unique passwords, vulnerability reporting, and support period transparency.
    • Alignment with the upcoming Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) for connected devices, while not applicable in the UK, this regulation must be considered by companies intending to sell or operate in the EU after Dec 2027.
    • RED 3.3: An EU requirement not applicable in the UK, but critical for manufacturers selling internet-connected radio equipment in the EU. 

    Navigating these regulatory frameworks is essential for ensuring that IOT solutions are secure, compliant and ready to be implemented with confidence.
