Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure Bill (72 page(s), in English)

The UK's Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure Bill creates a new regulatory scheme to ensure that consumer connectable products are more secure against cyber attacks. Part 1 of this bill mandates that minimum cyber security requirements must be adhered to in relation to consumer connectable products sold in the UK. This bill provides a robust regulatory framework that can adapt and remain effective in the face of rapid technological advancement, the evolving techniques employed by malicious actors, and the broader international regulatory landscape. The UK notified a public consultation for this measure on 24 August 2020 as "Proposal for Cyber Security of Consumer IoT Devices" (G/TBT/N/GBR/36) with a corrigendum (G/TBT/N/GBR/36/Corr1).
