clarification on BEREC consultation
by Jim Reid 17 Oct '19

17 Oct '19

Peter kindly pointed out that my earlier mail today on this topic mistakenly quoted an ETSI thing, not the BEREC consultation. Apologies for any confusion. The morning coffee hadn't kicked in when I sent the email. Well that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it. The important thing is unchanged though. The Connnect WG is leading the effort on a community response to the BEREC consultation on identification of the network termination point. If members of the IoT WG have input to that community response, please raise them in the Connnect WG. We can of course discuss BEREC's ideas here. However that is unlikely to influence whatever community response emerges from the Connect WG.

For information: ETSI releases IoT security standard
by Marco Hogewoning 17 Oct '19

Dear colleagues, The European Telecommunications Standardisation Institute (ETSI), earlier this week released their initial standard for securing IoT devices. The document is titled ‘Technical specification - Cyber Security for Consumer Internet of Things’ (ETSI TS 103 645), and states that its objective is, “...to support all parties involved in the development and manufacturing of consumer IoT with guidance on securing their products.” While it remains a very high-level document, containing many recommendations our community probably takes for granted, it could be helpful in guiding newcomers towards a more secure implementation of their IoT services and devices. The recommendations include items like, for instance, using non-default passwords. Although this is not yet a European Standard (EN) level specification, it is likely that any European standard specification in this area would be developed based on guidance from this document. In this context, a specification like this might also be reflected in product conformity guidelines such as the Radio Equipment Directive, that I posted about last week. The specification is available at https://www.etsi.org/deliver/etsi_ts/103600_103699/103645/01.01.01_60/ts_10… Regards, Marco Hogewoning RIPE NCC
