[iot-wg] For information: ETSI releases IoT security standard

Dear colleagues,

Please be aware that the below is a FYI.

The Connect WG is currently looking into submitting a response to a BEREC consultation regarding the definition of the Network Termination Point, as part of implementing the recent European Electronic Communications Code.

The BEREC draft guidelines are available from

https://berec.europa.eu/eng/document_register/subject_matter/berec/regulatory_best_practices/guidelines/8821-berec-guidelines-on-common-approaches-to-the-identification-of-the-network-termination-point-in-different-network-topologies <https://berec.europa.eu/eng/document_register/subject_matter/berec/regulatory_best_practices/guidelines/8821-berec-guidelines-on-common-approaches-to-the-identification-of-the-network-termination-point-in-different-network-topologies>

And as Jim mentioned, please leave any comments to the Connect WG mailing list, as this working group is trying to reach a consensus opinion to submit into the public consultation process on behalf of the RIPE community.

Best,

Marco Hogewoning
External Relations, RIPE NCC

In this context, a specification like this might also be reflected in product conformity guidelines such as the Radio Equipment Directive, that I posted about last week.
