Consumers in the U.S. will soon have a new way to identify IoT devices that meet cybersecurity standards – the U.S. Cyber Trust Mark. Similar to the Energy Star logo for environmentally conscious products, this label will provide peace of mind for tech-savvy consumers. With the increasing number of connected devices worldwide, the need for trustworthy products has never been more critical. The logo will appear on wireless consumer IoT products that meet FCC’s cybersecurity standards, accompanied by a QR code with security details. The program encourages manufacturers, retailers, and federal partners to display the logo on compliant products to protect consumers from cyber threats. Compliance testing will be conducted by accredited labs to ensure the security of products displaying the logo. The goal is to combat the rise of botnets and reduce the number of insecure devices in the hands of consumers.
