Results of a research project commissioned by the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI)Study ‘Good consumer information for IT security-conscious purchasing decisions’ published

ConPolicy project managers Dr Otmar Lell, Dr Julius Rauber and Emily Bringmann used the example of networked devices to address the question of how product-related consumer information on IT security should be provided by manufacturers and retailers in a transparent and comprehensible manner. In addition to concrete presentation proposals for manufacturers and retailers, the results of the project show new perspectives for IT security-relevant consumer information and provide corresponding recommendations for action for stakeholders in the field of digital consumer protection.

The published project results include a fact sheet and a focus report for retailers and manufacturers of networked products.

You can find the final report here.
