The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has issued the NIST SP 800-213A: IoT Device Cybersecurity Guidance for the Federal Government: IoT Device Cybersecurity Requirement Catalog.

The Special Publication (SP) 800-213A provides a catalog of internet of things (IoT) device cybersecurity capabilities (i.e., features and functions needed from a device to support security controls) and non-technical supporting capabilities (i.e., actions and support needed from device manufacturers and other supporting entities to support security controls), in support of SP 800-213.

The NIST IoT cybersecurity catalog consists of the following cybersecurity capabilities:

  • Device Identification
  • Device Configuration
  • Data Protection
  • Logical Access to Interfaces
  • Software Update
  • Cybersecurity State Awareness
