Complex testing
The "Protected Privacy IoT Service" certificate focuses on the service and the interface or application (e.g. web service) that is connected to an IoT device. To enable a device to be controlled via an application, data is transferred to the service provider and then processed. A total of 26 partially very complex requirement groups are tested, including various tests on the system architecture. "Such tests require a high degree of trust, openness and willingness to cooperate on the part of the manufacturer to be certified. As with Gooee, these requirements were met in an excellent manner," says Udo Scalla, Global Head Center of Excellence IoT Privacy at TÜV Rheinland.
Data protection at the top of the list
Gooee is a specialist for innovative lighting solutions in the IoT sector working together with numerous international manufacturers. "Our customers have the highest demands on security and data protection. Gooee is proud to be the first full-stack IoT developer to collaborate with TÜV Rheinland as part of the IoT Privacy certification opportunity and to have now received the Protected Privacy IoT Service certificate. This proves that data protection and security are our top priorities,” says Simon Coombes, Chief Technology Officer at Gooee.
