FCC Advances IoT Labelling Process for Cybersecurity
The FCC starts its initiative aimed at improving cybersecurity for Internet of Things (IoT) devices by introducing a voluntary labelling program. By accepting applications for administrators, the FCC hopes to promote best practices in device security.
How the IoT Labelling Program Works
- Voluntary participation for manufacturers.
- Standards set to ensure device security.
- Potential to reduce consumer risks.
Impact on IoT Manufacturers and Consumers
The initiative can significantly reshape the landscape of IoT devices, prompting manufacturers to adhere to enhanced cybersecurity measures. As consumers become more aware of security risks, this initiative can help in making informed choices.
