Secured by Design’s Secure Connected Device
In 2022, SBD introduced the ‘Secure Connected Device’ (SCD) accreditation scheme in line with government legislation for companies providing Internet of Things (IoT) connected products. Without the appropriate levels of security, any internet-connected device or app is at risk of providing cyber criminals with the ‘key’ in accessing and stealing personal data.
Why is it important to buy SCD accredited IoT products?
The risk of a cyber attack or breach against an IoT device can be reduced as SCD accredited devices have been tested to ensure they have been built to the required security standards.
The ‘Secure Connected Device’ accreditation is the only way for companies to obtain police recognition for the security of their IoT products in the UK.
