The National Cyber Security Centre Finland (NCSC-FI) within Finnish regulatory agency Traficom has kicked off a smart device certification programme designed to inform consumers if certain products meet basic information security standards.

In a press release, Traficom claims the programme makes Finland the first European country to issue certificates for safe smart devices.

"The security level of devices in the market varies, and until now there has been no easy way for consumers to know which products are safe and which are not," said Jarkko Saarimaki director of the National Cyber Security Centre Finland (NCSC-FI) at Traficom, in the release
The NCSC-FI commenced development of its Cybersecurity label in late 2018 in a pilot project involving smart device manufacturers Cozify Oy, DNA Plc and Polar Electro Oy. A label was granted to Cozify’s Hub for smart homes, DNA’s Wattinen smart heating system and Polar Ignite’s fitness smartwatch, the release states.
