ETSI EN 303 645 Consumer IoT Security Guide

Use this hub to scope consumer IoT devices and associated services against ETSI EN 303 645 baseline provisions for passwords, vulnerability reporting, software updates, secure storage, communications, telemetry, data deletion, and input validation.

The guide separates the standard's high-level, outcome-focused provisions from ETSI TS 103 701 assessment mechanics such as ICS declarations, IXIT records, conceptual tests, functional tests, verdicts, and reuse of external evidence.

Use this artifact to decide

Which provisions apply

Map device functions, associated services, interfaces, data inputs, software update behavior, and personal-data handling to the relevant ETSI EN 303 645 provisions.

What evidence to collect

Prepare ICS and IXIT-style records that show how the device design, implementation, documentation, and supporting processes meet each provision.

How assessment should run

Use ETSI TS 103 701 concepts to separate conceptual design checks, functional implementation checks, test-group verdicts, and external evidence reuse.

Next step

Turn ETSI EN 303 645 into an assessment-ready product workflow

Use this artifact as the shared starting point for consumer IoT scope, provision mapping, implementation evidence, and ETSI TS 103 701 assessment preparation.

What this unlocks

Identify the device under test, associated services, supplier responsibilities, interfaces, data flows, and software update mechanisms.
Assign owners for each baseline provision area and collect the product records needed for ICS and IXIT-style assessment inputs.
Use cited research when deciding whether a provision is applicable, conditional, feature-dependent, or not applicable to a specific device.
Keep conceptual design evidence, functional test evidence, external evidence decisions, and verdict rationale connected to the same product record.
