Cybersecurity labeling scheme introduced to help users choose safe IoT devices

Several countries are introducing a cybersecurity labeling scheme to inform consumers about the security features of IoT devices and force manufacturers to improve these features. Finland became the first country in Europe to grant information security certificates to devices that passed the required tests. Singapore is introducing a first-of-its-kind cybersecurity rating system in the APAC region. The CLS, which is a first for the Asia-Pacific region, will first be introduced to two product types: WiFi routers and smart home hubs. The idea is that a security label will instill confidence in consumers that their device was built according to security standards.”]
