Michelle Kradolfer, SBD’s IoT Technical Officer, said: “There has been an exponential rise in IoT and smart devices being used within the average UK household, but most are not produced without giving security much thought and leaving consumers vulnerable to cyber attacks. Therefore, companies with IoT products need to ensure they are developed as secure as possible and tested against the appropriate standards and certifications.

“I am delighted that SALTO have become one of the first companies to achieve the Secure Connected Device accreditation and clearly demonstrating that their Neo Electronic Cylinder Range and XS4 One Lock have achieved the appropriate IoT standards and certifications, building confidence and trust in their product. We hope other companies will take note of this achievement and follow in SALTO’s footsteps in developing IoT products safely for the UK market”.

SALTO Systems Ltd MD Ramesh Gurdev says, “Achieving this new Secure Connected Device accreditation with Secured by Design demonstrates to current and potential customers that SALTO connected products continue to meet the highest security standards.”
