Certifying connectivity, security and performance.
IoT component certification
The IECQ IoT component certification is a specific certification programme to evaluate and certify the evaluation of function useability and performance, voice recognition, and connectivity stress of components used in Internet of Things (IoT) devices.
The certification covers various aspects of IoT components, including hardware, firmware, software, and connectivity. It ensures that the IoT components meet international standards/specifications for quality and reliability and that they are designed and manufactured using the latest technologies and best practices.
The IECQ IoT component certification also includes a focus on cyber security, which is an essential aspect of IoT devices. The certification programme evaluates the security features and measures implemented in the IoT components to ensure that they are designed to protect against potential cyber threats and vulnerabilities.
By obtaining the IECQ IoT component certification, manufacturers can demonstrate that their IoT components meet high-quality and cyber security standards, which can help to improve the overall quality and reliability of IoT devices. Additionally, customers can have greater confidence in the security and reliability of the IoT products they purchase, knowing that they have been independently certified to meet international standards.
