Nowhere is the interconnected relationship between technology and the home more evident than the rapidly growing world of IoT.
What we see time and time again is that consumers care about security within their products, but most assume that a product is safe simply because it is for sale. We recognise it is not reasonable to expect everyone to become a cyber security expert, so we need to shift the burden off end users, support manufacturers of all sizes to embed strong cyber security principles, champion those that already do, and regulate to protect citizens from manufacturers that don't take security seriously.
In the workshop, I will seek feedback on how effective legislation can be implemented, and how to ensure a system is set up to continue to protect citizens and the wider economy. Among this, I would like to explore the following questions…
- How can we ensure all manufacturers act responsibly and meet the baseline?
- How can we ensure the ‘floor' doesn't become the ‘ceiling': ensuring transparency is built in above the baseline?
