The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is seeking public comments on a proposal to create a voluntary cybersecurity labeling program to help consumers identify “Smart” devices that meet widely accepted security and privacy standards.
Under the proposed program, a new shield logo entitled “U.S. Cyber Trust Mark” would be used on products meeting the cybersecurity standards. The logo would appear on packaging alongside a QR code that could be scanned for more information and linked to a national registry of certified devices for the most current security information.
