Connected objects

At last! Since 2022, European and French authorities have been addressing the security of connected equipment. One of their aims has been to considerably improve the security of equipment that can now be found everywhere, from smartphones to connected TVs and even connected thermostats. Of course, digital security is constantly changing, as it is a never-ending race between technological evolution and the sophistication of attacks. A security score is only accurate at the moment it is issued, since a fault may be discovered the very next day. To monitor the security of an object throughout its life cycle, the Home Security research project is developing specifications for an adaptable security scoring system. It was presented at the Orange Research and Innovation Exhibition 2022.
