The PSTI Act came into force on April 29, 2024. This key piece of legislation tackles long-recognized cybersecurity and privacy vulnerabilities in consumer products that can connect to the internet or a network. If you’re a manufacturer or business placing consumer connectable products in the UK and Ireland markets, you will need to be compliant with this new legislation.
The PSTI Act is based on the UK’s Code of Practice for Consumer IoT security, the leading global standard for consumer IoT cybersecurity ETSI EN 303 645, and on advice from the UK’s technical authority for cyber threats, the National Cyber Security Center.
