ITU-T Y.4806 PDF

This Recommendation identifies security threats that may affect safety and security capabilities based on [ITU-T Y.4401].

Firstly, this Recommendation determines security threats with a possible impact on safety. Secondly, it identifies which security capabilities can be applied to mitigate these threats.

The Internet of things poses specific security challenges, which may not be covered by existing security objectives (such as confidentiality, integrity, availability) completely. Further elaboration of specific security countermeasures relies on an interpretation of security capabilities according to the identified threats.

This Recommendation is mostly applicable to safety-critical Internet of things (IoT) systems, such as industrial automation, automotive systems, transportation, smart cities, wearable and standalone medical devices, however it has no specific restrictions and may be used for any domain area of IoT.
