Abstract: The goal of the Internet Engineering Task Force’s Manufacturer Usage Description (MUD) specification is for Internet of Things (IoT) devices to behave as the devices’ manufacturers intended. MUD provides a standard way for manufacturers to indicate the network communications that a device requires t...

Abstract: NIST conducted a review of the available alternative approaches for providing confidence in the cybersecurity of Internet of Things (IoT) devices in November 2020 through January 2021, conducting interviews with government and private sector organizations who are experts on these approaches. This wh...

Abstract: This report provides a summary of the discussion and findings from the NIST Cybersecurity Risks in Consumer Home Internet of Things (IoT) Devices virtual workshop in October 2020. NIST Interagency Report (NISTIR) 8259, Foundational Cybersecurity Activities for IoT Device Manufacturers, and NISTIR 82...

Abstract: This report summarizes the feedback received on the work of the NIST Cybersecurity for IoT program on device cybersecurity at a virtual workshop in July 2020. NISTIR 8259, Foundational Cybersecurity Activities for IoT Device Manufacturers and NISTIR 8259A, IoT Device Cybersecurity Capability Co...

Abstract: The core baseline in NISTIR 8259A, IoT Device Cybersecurity Capability Core Baseline and the non-technical baseline in NISTIR 8259B, IoT Manufacturer Non-Technical Supporting Capability Core Baseline can be expanded upon based on more specific contextual information. Using source material with infor...

Abstract: Internet of Things (IoT) devices are typically connected to a network. The steps performed to provision a device with its network credentials are referred to as network-layer onboarding (or simply, onboarding). This paper proposes a taxonomy for IoT device onboarding that can clearly express the cap...

Abstract: Device cybersecurity capabilities are cybersecurity features or functions that computing devices provide through their own technical means (i.e., device hardware and software). This publication defines an Internet of Things (IoT) device cybersecurity capability core baseline, which is a set of devic...

Abstract: Internet of Things (IoT) devices often lack device cybersecurity capabilities their customers—organizations and individuals—can use to help mitigate their cybersecurity risks. Manufacturers can help their customers by improving how securable the IoT devices they make are by providing necessary cyber...

Abstract: The Internet of Things (IoT) is a rapidly evolving and expanding collection of diverse technologies that interact with the physical world. Many organizations are not necessarily aware of the large number of IoT devices they are already using and how IoT devices may affect cybersecurity and privacy r...

Abstract: The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to systems that involve computation, sensing, communication, and actuation (as presented in NIST Special Publication (SP) 800-183). IoT involves the connection between humans, non-human physical objects, and cyber objects, enabling monitoring, automation, and deci...

Journal: IT Professional Abstract: In the Internet of Things (IoT), what can we measure? The authors explore how the field of metrology might be applicable to the IoT.

Abstract: This report provides an overview of the topics discussed at the “Internet of Things (IoT) Cybersecurity Colloquium” hosted on NIST’s campus in Gaithersburg, Maryland on October 19, 2017. It summarizes key takeaways from the presentations and discussions. Further, it provides information on potential...
