How to Conform with Security Regulations for IoT Devices

Conformance testing for IoT devices with automated security assessment

Ensuring consumer-grade Internet of Things (IoT) devices pass security certification tests requires rigorous evaluation before devices are sent to certification labs. Conformance tests include fuzzing communications chipsets, scanning ports to limit network services, analyzing onboard firmware, checking encryption ciphers, and validating authentication protocols. Manufacturers must prove devices pass these tests to pass compliance testing for IoT security regulations such as the Cyber Trust Mark (US), Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure Act (UK), and Cyber Resilience Act (EU). Certification criteria vary by regulation but often correspond to ETSI EN 303 645, NIST IR 8425, and ANSI CTA 2088-A standards.

Conformance testing requires validating all device interfaces against various encryption schemes, network stacks, and attack vectors. End-to-end conformance tests call for several specialized tools — including vulnerability scanners, fuzzers, network test utilities (SSH, TLS, and SSL analyzers), and firmware analyzers — linked into an automated test harness and dashboard. Use an automated security test tool to validate all device configurations and interfaces, capture proof of regulatory conformance (such as metrics demonstrating the device has passed specific security tests), and close vulnerable gaps.
