Secured by Design (SBD) member company Ring has shared that their Ring Video Doorbell (2nd Generation), Stick Up Cam Battery, Stick Up Cam Solar, Stick Up Cam Plug-In and Floodlight Cam Wired Plus products have been awarded certification to the Kitemark for Internet of Things (IoT) from BSI (British Standards Institution).
“For more than 100 years, the BSI Kitemark has been recognised as a symbol of outstanding quality, safety and trust across a wide range of products and services,” said BSI’s Global Digital Products Director, David Mudd. “Ring’s certification to The Kitemark for IoT is a promise that best practice cybersecurity is applied to their Kitemarked products and a demonstration of their strong commitment to privacy and security.”
Ring commented: “To achieve this accreditation, devices were rigorously tested and exceeded international standards for IoT security and privacy. Ring’s mobile application, product design, manufacturing and support management processes were also assessed to ensure the high standards of quality are maintained throughout production. These initial and ongoing assessments by trusted external organisations give continued peace of mind that Ring products meet very high standards for safety and reliability.
“At Ring, we design privacy and security deeply into all of our products and services and we give our customers control of their information while ensuring they can operate the devices with ease and confidence.
“In 2021, we continued to deliver on our commitment to innovating on the privacy and security features we provide. We were one of the first in the smart home industry to offer video end-to-end encryption for our customers. We also added support for authenticator apps to provide an additional layer of security at login. We are excited to continue innovating on behalf of our customers, while keeping security foundational to everything we build and offer.”
