UK To Introduce New Law For IoT Device Security
Reported by forbes.com
The UK government has announced plans to introduce new IoT security laws for manufacturers of connected devices. Launched by Digital Minister Margot James, the legislation (which is open for consultation) will involve a mandatory labeling system to determine the level of security of an internet-enabled device, similar to the European energy efficiency labeling system for appliances, and could prohibit the sale of items that do not conform to these IoT security standards.
