# UK PSTI Product Security PSTI vs ETSI EN 303 645 Guide

UK PSTI Product Security guidance for PSTI vs ETSI EN 303 645, with practical decisions, evidence, edge cases, and external source citations.

*Artifact Guide* *UK* *PSTI vs ETSI EN 303 645*

## UK PSTI Product Security PSTI vs ETSI EN 303 645

PSTI vs ETSI EN 303 645 decisions under UK PSTI Product Security should be written in operational language: who is in scope, what must happen, what evidence proves it, and when escalation is needed.

Use this guide to turn official requirements into scope, evidence, owner, and review decisions. This guidance is practical, source-linked, and should be validated against current legal and policy requirements before implementation.

This page helps you determine which UK PSTI Product Security duties apply, who owns each action, required evidence, and the review path for escalation decisions.

## PSTI vs ETSI EN 303 645: practical compliance comparison

Compare PSTI and ETSI EN 303 645 through scope, actors, triggers, duties, evidence, deadlines, enforcement, and operational decision rules.

- **PSTI**: PSTI is the primary scoping column: use it to confirm covered facts, accountable owners, mandatory artifacts, timing, and enforcement exposure before assigning implementation work.
- **ETSI EN 303 645**: ETSI EN 303 645 is the second workstream in this comparison. Use it to test where the comparator has different scope, owners, triggers, evidence, timing, enforcement, and reuse limits from PSTI.

| Dimension | PSTI | ETSI EN 303 645 | Operational implication | Sources |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Scope and covered activity | PSTI: define the exact products, services, processing, claims, entities, assets, or activities that bring this side into scope; record out-of-scope facts separately. | ETSI EN 303 645: test its own scope boundary, exclusions, and covered activity; do not copy the PSTI conclusion without a separate source-linked finding. | Write two scope findings first: where PSTI applies, where ETSI EN 303 645 applies, and which facts are outside one side even if evidence can be reused. | [Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure Act 2022](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2022/46/contents?ref=sorena.io) - Primary UK PSTI Act source for connected product security duties.<br>[Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure security requirements regulations 2023](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2023/1007/contents?ref=sorena.io) - UK PSTI security requirements regulations set the mandatory baseline security requirements for relevant connectable products.<br>[Regulations: consumer connectable product security](https://www.gov.uk/guidance/regulations-consumer-connectable-product-security?ref=sorena.io) - OPSS and DSIT guidance identifies PSTI roles, compliance duties, security requirements, exclusions, and enforcement context.<br>[ETSI EN 303 645, Cyber Security for Consumer Internet of Things: Baseline Requirements](https://www.etsi.org/deliver/etsi_en/303600_303699/303645/03.01.03_60/en_303645v030103p.pdf?ref=sorena.io) - ETSI EN 303 645 is the voluntary consumer IoT baseline standard used here as the comparator to mandatory UK PSTI duties.<br>[The UK Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure (Product Security) regime](https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-uk-product-security-and-telecommunications-infrastructure-product-security-regime?ref=sorena.io) - PSTI regulations and guidance support the comparison finding that scope, role, and evidence decisions must be tied to mandatory product-security duties. |
| Who must act | PSTI: identify whether the duty sits with the manufacturer, importer, distributor, or authorised representative, and record which supply-chain role can change the product, statement of compliance, vulnerability-disclosure channel, password control, or support-period information. | ETSI EN 303 645: assign the comparator duty to its own accountable actor and note when counterparties, subsidiaries, importers, providers, or customers differ. | Name each role separately because one entity can hold different obligations in different workflows. | [Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure Act 2022](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2022/46/contents?ref=sorena.io) - Primary UK PSTI Act source for connected product security duties.<br>[Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure security requirements regulations 2023](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2023/1007/contents?ref=sorena.io) - UK PSTI security requirements regulations set the mandatory baseline security requirements for relevant connectable products.<br>[Regulations: consumer connectable product security](https://www.gov.uk/guidance/regulations-consumer-connectable-product-security?ref=sorena.io) - OPSS and DSIT guidance identifies PSTI roles, compliance duties, security requirements, exclusions, and enforcement context.<br>[ETSI EN 303 645, Cyber Security for Consumer Internet of Things: Baseline Requirements](https://www.etsi.org/deliver/etsi_en/303600_303699/303645/03.01.03_60/en_303645v030103p.pdf?ref=sorena.io) - ETSI EN 303 645 is the voluntary consumer IoT baseline standard used here as the comparator to mandatory UK PSTI duties.<br>[The UK Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure (Product Security) regime](https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-uk-product-security-and-telecommunications-infrastructure-product-security-regime?ref=sorena.io) - PSTI regulations and guidance support the comparison finding that scope, role, and evidence decisions must be tied to mandatory product-security duties. |
| Trigger or threshold | PSTI: state the fact that starts the obligation, such as market placement, processing, designation, incident, reporting period, transfer, data request, supplier change, or public claim. | ETSI EN 303 645 is a voluntary consumer IoT baseline standard, so use it as a control and evidence comparator rather than treating it as a legal trigger with statutory thresholds or supervisory notices. | Start with the trigger so teams do not apply the wrong regime to the wrong facts. | [Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure Act 2022](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2022/46/contents?ref=sorena.io) - Primary UK PSTI Act source for connected product security duties.<br>[Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure security requirements regulations 2023](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2023/1007/contents?ref=sorena.io) - UK PSTI security requirements regulations set the mandatory baseline security requirements for relevant connectable products.<br>[Regulations: consumer connectable product security](https://www.gov.uk/guidance/regulations-consumer-connectable-product-security?ref=sorena.io) - OPSS and DSIT guidance identifies PSTI roles, compliance duties, security requirements, exclusions, and enforcement context.<br>[ETSI EN 303 645, Cyber Security for Consumer Internet of Things: Baseline Requirements](https://www.etsi.org/deliver/etsi_en/303600_303699/303645/03.01.03_60/en_303645v030103p.pdf?ref=sorena.io) - ETSI EN 303 645 is the voluntary consumer IoT baseline standard used here as the comparator to mandatory UK PSTI duties.<br>[The UK Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure (Product Security) regime](https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-uk-product-security-and-telecommunications-infrastructure-product-security-regime?ref=sorena.io) - PSTI regulations and guidance support the comparison finding that scope, role, and evidence decisions must be tied to mandatory product-security duties. |
| Core obligations | The UK PSTI Act mandates three baseline security requirements for all connectable products: no universal default passwords, a published vulnerability disclosure policy, and a declared minimum security update period - each enforced by OPSS under the PSTI regime. | ETSI EN 303 645 defines 13 provisions covering no universal default passwords, a vulnerability disclosure policy, software update mechanisms, secure storage of sensitive parameters, minimized attack surface, security communications, minimized exposed attack surface, software integrity, personal data protection, resilience, telemetry examination, deletion of user data, and easy device installation. | Translate obligations into tickets, notices, records, controls, or contract terms. | [Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure Act 2022](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2022/46/contents?ref=sorena.io) - Primary UK PSTI Act source for connected product security duties.<br>[Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure security requirements regulations 2023](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2023/1007/contents?ref=sorena.io) - UK PSTI security requirements regulations set the mandatory baseline security requirements for relevant connectable products.<br>[Regulations: consumer connectable product security](https://www.gov.uk/guidance/regulations-consumer-connectable-product-security?ref=sorena.io) - OPSS and DSIT guidance identifies PSTI roles, compliance duties, security requirements, exclusions, and enforcement context.<br>[ETSI EN 303 645, Cyber Security for Consumer Internet of Things: Baseline Requirements](https://www.etsi.org/deliver/etsi_en/303600_303699/303645/03.01.03_60/en_303645v030103p.pdf?ref=sorena.io) - ETSI EN 303 645 is the voluntary consumer IoT baseline standard used here as the comparator to mandatory UK PSTI duties.<br>[The UK Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure (Product Security) regime](https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-uk-product-security-and-telecommunications-infrastructure-product-security-regime?ref=sorena.io) - PSTI regulations and guidance support the comparison finding that scope, role, and evidence decisions must be tied to mandatory product-security duties. |
| Evidence and records | PSTI: keep the evidence that proves this side of the decision, including cited text, registers, policies, test records, contracts, notices, reports, approvals, or audit artifacts. | ETSI EN 303 645: keep comparator evidence in a distinct record set and link only the artifacts that genuinely satisfy both source-linked requirements. | Keep source links, factual analysis, owner approval, and implementation evidence together. | [Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure Act 2022](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2022/46/contents?ref=sorena.io) - Primary UK PSTI Act source for connected product security duties.<br>[Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure security requirements regulations 2023](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2023/1007/contents?ref=sorena.io) - UK PSTI security requirements regulations set the mandatory baseline security requirements for relevant connectable products.<br>[Regulations: consumer connectable product security](https://www.gov.uk/guidance/regulations-consumer-connectable-product-security?ref=sorena.io) - OPSS and DSIT guidance identifies PSTI roles, compliance duties, security requirements, exclusions, and enforcement context.<br>[ETSI EN 303 645, Cyber Security for Consumer Internet of Things: Baseline Requirements](https://www.etsi.org/deliver/etsi_en/303600_303699/303645/03.01.03_60/en_303645v030103p.pdf?ref=sorena.io) - ETSI EN 303 645 is the voluntary consumer IoT baseline standard used here as the comparator to mandatory UK PSTI duties.<br>[The UK Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure (Product Security) regime](https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-uk-product-security-and-telecommunications-infrastructure-product-security-regime?ref=sorena.io) - PSTI regulations and guidance support the comparison finding that scope, role, and evidence decisions must be tied to mandatory product-security duties. |
| Timing and cadence | PSTI: capture the application date, commencement date, transition period, reporting clock, review cadence, remediation window, or certification renewal that controls this side. | ETSI EN 303 645: track the comparator schedule separately so a later deadline, recurring audit, or incident timer is not hidden by the other workstream. | Use current source dates; do not reuse old project plans after amendments or guidance updates. | [Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure Act 2022](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2022/46/contents?ref=sorena.io) - Primary UK PSTI Act source for connected product security duties.<br>[Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure security requirements regulations 2023](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2023/1007/contents?ref=sorena.io) - UK PSTI security requirements regulations set the mandatory baseline security requirements for relevant connectable products.<br>[Regulations: consumer connectable product security](https://www.gov.uk/guidance/regulations-consumer-connectable-product-security?ref=sorena.io) - OPSS and DSIT guidance identifies PSTI roles, compliance duties, security requirements, exclusions, and enforcement context.<br>[ETSI EN 303 645, Cyber Security for Consumer Internet of Things: Baseline Requirements](https://www.etsi.org/deliver/etsi_en/303600_303699/303645/03.01.03_60/en_303645v030103p.pdf?ref=sorena.io) - ETSI EN 303 645 is the voluntary consumer IoT baseline standard used here as the comparator to mandatory UK PSTI duties.<br>[The UK Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure (Product Security) regime](https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-uk-product-security-and-telecommunications-infrastructure-product-security-regime?ref=sorena.io) - PSTI regulations and guidance support the comparison finding that scope, role, and evidence decisions must be tied to mandatory product-security duties. |
| Enforcement or assurance route | PSTI: identify the competent authority, regulator, assessor, customer audit, certification body, contractual remedy, penalty, or supervisory process tied to this side. | ETSI EN 303 645: identify the comparator enforcement or assurance route and record where supervision, penalties, market access, certification, or contract leverage differs. | Escalate when enforcement routes differ because a regulator, market-surveillance authority, certification body, customer, or contract counterparty may require different proof. | [Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure Act 2022](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2022/46/contents?ref=sorena.io) - Primary UK PSTI Act source for connected product security duties.<br>[Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure security requirements regulations 2023](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2023/1007/contents?ref=sorena.io) - UK PSTI security requirements regulations set the mandatory baseline security requirements for relevant connectable products.<br>[Regulations: consumer connectable product security](https://www.gov.uk/guidance/regulations-consumer-connectable-product-security?ref=sorena.io) - OPSS and DSIT guidance identifies PSTI roles, compliance duties, security requirements, exclusions, and enforcement context.<br>[ETSI EN 303 645, Cyber Security for Consumer Internet of Things: Baseline Requirements](https://www.etsi.org/deliver/etsi_en/303600_303699/303645/03.01.03_60/en_303645v030103p.pdf?ref=sorena.io) - ETSI EN 303 645 is the voluntary consumer IoT baseline standard used here as the comparator to mandatory UK PSTI duties.<br>[The UK Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure (Product Security) regime](https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-uk-product-security-and-telecommunications-infrastructure-product-security-regime?ref=sorena.io) - PSTI regulations and guidance support the comparison finding that scope, role, and evidence decisions must be tied to mandatory product-security duties. |
| Overlap and reuse | PSTI: reuse controls only where the source-linked duty, evidence standard, owner, and timing align with the comparator; otherwise keep a bridge note. | ETSI EN 303 645 can reuse evidence from the other side only when the same fact pattern, system boundary, control, owner, and source-linked requirement are genuinely aligned. | Document overlap explicitly instead of merging both tests into one vague compliance label. | [Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure Act 2022](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2022/46/contents?ref=sorena.io) - Primary UK PSTI Act source for connected product security duties.<br>[Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure security requirements regulations 2023](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2023/1007/contents?ref=sorena.io) - UK PSTI security requirements regulations set the mandatory baseline security requirements for relevant connectable products.<br>[Regulations: consumer connectable product security](https://www.gov.uk/guidance/regulations-consumer-connectable-product-security?ref=sorena.io) - OPSS and DSIT guidance identifies PSTI roles, compliance duties, security requirements, exclusions, and enforcement context.<br>[ETSI EN 303 645, Cyber Security for Consumer Internet of Things: Baseline Requirements](https://www.etsi.org/deliver/etsi_en/303600_303699/303645/03.01.03_60/en_303645v030103p.pdf?ref=sorena.io) - ETSI EN 303 645 is the voluntary consumer IoT baseline standard used here as the comparator to mandatory UK PSTI duties.<br>[The UK Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure (Product Security) regime](https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-uk-product-security-and-telecommunications-infrastructure-product-security-regime?ref=sorena.io) - PSTI regulations and guidance support the comparison finding that scope, role, and evidence decisions must be tied to mandatory product-security duties. |
| Practical decision rule | PSTI: treat this as the controlling workstream when its scope trigger, deadline, regulator, or required artifact is the immediate blocker. | ETSI EN 303 645: run a parallel or follow-on workstream when this side adds separate actors, evidence, timing, penalties, customer assurances, or implementation constraints. | Choose one practical next step: proceed under PSTI, proceed under ETSI EN 303 645, run both in parallel, or document why neither side controls the present fact pattern. | [Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure Act 2022](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2022/46/contents?ref=sorena.io) - Primary UK PSTI Act source for connected product security duties.<br>[Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure security requirements regulations 2023](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2023/1007/contents?ref=sorena.io) - UK PSTI security requirements regulations set the mandatory baseline security requirements for relevant connectable products.<br>[Regulations: consumer connectable product security](https://www.gov.uk/guidance/regulations-consumer-connectable-product-security?ref=sorena.io) - OPSS and DSIT guidance identifies PSTI roles, compliance duties, security requirements, exclusions, and enforcement context.<br>[ETSI EN 303 645, Cyber Security for Consumer Internet of Things: Baseline Requirements](https://www.etsi.org/deliver/etsi_en/303600_303699/303645/03.01.03_60/en_303645v030103p.pdf?ref=sorena.io) - ETSI EN 303 645 is the voluntary consumer IoT baseline standard used here as the comparator to mandatory UK PSTI duties.<br>[The UK Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure (Product Security) regime](https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-uk-product-security-and-telecommunications-infrastructure-product-security-regime?ref=sorena.io) - PSTI regulations and guidance support the comparison finding that scope, role, and evidence decisions must be tied to mandatory product-security duties. |

## How should teams compare PSTI vs ETSI EN 303 645 under UK PSTI Product Security?

Start by deciding whether the product is a relevant connectable product and which manufacturer, importer, distributor, statement-of-compliance, vulnerability-disclosure, password, support-period, or OPSS enforcement duty is triggered. The useful answer should name the exact trigger, affected product or process, required action, owner, evidence, and escalation point.

Keep the legal source, product-scope decision, manufacturer/importer/distributor role, statement of compliance, and technical evidence together so OPSS-facing records are reviewable.

- Define the exact PSTI vs ETSI EN 303 645 trigger and the business process it affects.
- Record which role, product, system, customer group, or data flow is in scope.
- Attach the source-linked rule, the owner, and the evidence field before approving the control.
- Escalate uncertainty when the facts depend on thresholds, exemptions, cross-border activity, vulnerable users, or enforcement-sensitive wording.

- [Regulations: consumer connectable product security](https://www.gov.uk/guidance/regulations-consumer-connectable-product-security?ref=sorena.io) - OPSS and DSIT guidance identifies PSTI roles, compliance duties, security requirements, exclusions, and enforcement context.

## Who should own PSTI vs ETSI EN 303 645, and what evidence should prove the decision?

Ownership should sit with the team that controls product design, supply-chain placement, importer/distributor checks, or customer security information, with legal and product-security review.

Evidence should show relevant-connectable-product scope, default-password controls, vulnerability disclosure channel, minimum support period, statement of compliance, supply-chain role checks, and OPSS notice response readiness.

- Name one accountable owner and one reviewer for the PSTI vs ETSI EN 303 645 workflow.
- Keep source screenshots or source links, decision notes, implementation tickets, and approval records together.
- Use dated evidence for deadlines, notices, risk assessments, contracts, user journeys, and regulator-facing records.
- Review the evidence after product changes, new markets, new vendors, enforcement updates, or material changes in the source text.
