RED cybersecurity & EN 18031 standards

[Mhd]

Hello,

The new RED cybersecurity regulations will be enforced starting from august 2025 and it will based on the EN 18031 standard. Now, as the final draft of EN 18031 is published, do you know more about how these regulations will affect the products build with nrf5 SDK (v15,v16,v17) and nfr connect sdk ? for example, does the secure bootloader and secure DFU of nrf5 sdk v16 is compliant with these regulation ?

Best regards,Post

Hello,

This is related to the use of the end product, it's not how the different components (softdevice, DSK etc) are tested, but the whole design. Typically use of passwords, keys etc. It's more about handling of data.. 

how these regulations will affect the products build with nrf5 SDK (v15,v16,v17) and nfr connect sdk ?

It won't be affected by the SDK. See here: https://www.nemko.com/blog/european-standard-for-cyber-security-testing
