OCF Offers New Educational Resources
OCF Offers New Educational Resources
With an increasing number of people confined to their homes, the year 2020 has shed light on the utmost importance of simple, secure IoT technology. This year, OCF has made numerous updates to its specifications, with a common goal to make IoT manufacturers’ product development both cost-effective and uncomplicated, and the end-user’s experience seamless and secure.
These updates include the release of the OCF Universal Cloud Interface (UCI), IoT security baseline mapping and the new Simple Secure Multicast (SSM) feature. To help OCF members and the industry better understand these technological advancements, OCF experts have developed educational white papers on each topic. These white papers offer deep dives and unique insights into how and why these advancements have been made. Below we provide an overview of the new topical white papers now available for download:
IoT Will Reach A Point Where Limited Solutions Survive In Each Vertical
OCF India interview series of IoT Thought Leaders – Interview with OCF Executive Director, John Park
The internet of things market is anticipated to grow to $141.2 billion by 2023 but the absence of IoT technology skills and uniform IoT standards restrict the growth to a large extent. To understand the global IoT Standards landscape, why standards are needed in IoT, leading companies & Standard bodies, the importance of Open Source and the purpose of OCF (Open Connectivity Foundation) regional forums better, Ankita KS from EFY Group had an interaction with Dr. John Park, Executive Director, Open Connectivity Foundation.

The C2 Consensus on IoT Device Security Baseline Capabilities
OCF is pleased to work with CTA and CSDE on establishing an IoT Device Security Base Line. Through Collaboration with these organizations, OCF is able to provide our expert insights and work with some of the biggest players in the IoT industry to bring about a consensus of baseline capabilities that will drive the global market for IoT toward increased security. OCF not only contributed our technical materials, but our advice, support, and recommendations, including an annex to the C2 document that maps the OCF specification to the C2 Consensus security capabilities. This annex includes details on which release of the OCF Specification currently applies to each of these capabilities and what each capability does to secure different aspects of the IoT. By providing this annex of capabilities that the OCF currently maps to and enables within the specification, the OCF is not only sharing our thoughts on what the IoT industry should be doing, but OCF is actually implementing and providing these capabilities today through our publicly available specification and open source implementation – IoTivity.
