Anna Maria Mandalari for co-chair
Dear all, Many of you have seen my presentations or engaged with me over the years within the RIPE community and beyond, discussing IoT privacy, security, and measurement challenges. I would like to formally express my interest in serving as Co-Chair of the IoT Working Group. I am currently Assistant Professor in Communications & Networking at University College London (UCL), where I also serve as Director of the MSc in Internet Engineering and Telecommunications. I am an Honorary Research Fellow at Imperial College London and Visiting Professor at Yokohama National University. My research spans privacy, security, Internet measurement for IoT ecosystems, and I am also a member of the Executive Steering Board of the IoT Security Foundation. Over the last decade, my work has focused on the intersection of IoT, privacy, and cybersecurity. I have developed tools like COPSEC, IoTrim, and ReplIoT to address privacy and security challenges in IoT environments, aligning closely with regulatory initiatives such as the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA). I have collaborated with industry and regulators across the UK, EU, and Japan, leading projects on IoT security certification, adaptive privacy-preserving mechanisms, and privacy and security risk assessment. I have been an active member of the RIPE IoT Working Group, contributing with presentations, participation in discussions, and engaging with the community to bridge the gap between academic research, operational practice, and standardization efforts. Added Value as Co-Chair I believe I bring a unique profile that combines: * Deep academic expertise in IoT privacy, security, and Internet measurements; * Operational and testing insights through tool development and collaboration with industry partners; * Strong connections within cybersecurity and IoT standardization communities (IoTSF, IETF BMWG); * Experience with public engagement, creating awareness of IoT risks and best practices. Vision as Co-Chair As Co-Chair, I would like to: * Strengthen the dialogue between academia, industry, and policy makers within the WG; * Support initiatives around IoT security benchmarking, testing methodologies, and best practices dissemination; * Foster new contributions from diverse backgrounds and geographical areas; * Ensure continuity with the WG’s past work while driving new efforts aligned with emerging regulations and industry needs. I would be honored to contribute my expertise and energy to help the IoT WG continue its valuable mission. I look forward to the opportunity to support and serve the community. Best regards, Anna — Dr Anna Maria Mandalari Assistant Professor Department of Electronic & Electrical Engineering - University College London Honorary Research Fellow ISST - Imperial College London https://annamandalari.com/

-- Sandoche BALAKRICHENAN Head of R&D Partnerships @ Afnic LoRaWAN Academia WG Chair
While my term as iot-wg chair is ending I’m very excited to see Anna Marias candidature. I have seen several presentations in reasoned Ripe iot-wg sessions from you Anna Maria, all very high quality and depth insights right to the point of very relevant topics around IOT. It was easy with you filling a slot as presenter in iot-wg sessions to make it a very valuable time for all participating the these sessions. I’m sure, you keep that spirit up! I’m happy to express my support for Anna Maria. Big fat +1. Best regards Peter Wehrle IOT-WG co-chair Von: sandoche Balakrichenan via iot-wg <iot-wg@ripe.net> Gesendet: Samstag, 12.
