First introduced in January 2020, OCF is proud to announce the official completion of the OCF Universal Cloud Interface (UCI), now included in the recently published OCF 2.2.0 specification release. The OCF UCI will simplify collaboration between IoT device manufacturers by providing a programming interface for standardizing connectivity between different manufacturers’ cloud servers, as well as devices and the cloud. Using the OCF UCI, manufacturers can produce secure, interoperable IoT devices with confidence in their seamless operation.

OCF Completes Universal Cloud Interface Specification and Launches the Industry’s First Cloud-to-Cloud Certification Program
OCF Continues to Engage with NIST to Shape Its Cybersecurity Baseline
By Mark Walker, CableLabs
OCF continues to engage with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the US federal government’s expert agency on cybersecurity, to help drive increased IoT security. In early January, NIST released a second draft of NISTIR 8259 – “Recommendations for IoT Device Manufacturers: Foundational Activities and Core Device Cybersecurity Capability Baseline.” OCF supports NIST’s efforts to continue to develop a baseline of cybersecurity capabilities for all IoT devices. On February 7, OCF filed comments in response to the second draft to express our support and to provide further feedback to help the continued refinement of NISTIR 8259. These comments build upon OCF’s prior comments submitted in response to the first draft of NISTIR 8259. … [Read More]
OCF India Chapter: India’s IoT market is ready for standardization norms
- High demand from the Industries & consumer sector
- 7 bn connection by 2020 with $15 bn
- Lacks standard operability norms
The development and adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT) in India is rapidly growing, generating high demand from industrial and consumer sectors. NASSCOM predicts that there will be 2.7 billion connected devices by 2020, leading to an economic impact of up to $15 billion. It is estimated that connected devices will touch five billion by 2022, where the connected devices will be playing a key role in industrial digitization and digital transformation…. [Read More]

OCF Module Certification: Reducing Device Cost and Time to Market
Today, everyone must go through arduous certification and testing programs to create certifiable platforms that are both secure and contain working code. To address this complicated process, the OCF certification program continues to evolve and improve. One of the ways in which it continues to grow involves the testing and certification of modules for inclusion in devices whether they are a server or client. An OCF-capable module is not a complete end-product. However, it is designed to meet all the OCF certification requirements and functionality that can be included as part of an end-product. In this case, the modules we are referring to are sensors and actuators. As a result, the OCF recently began the process of certifying sensors and actuators to address the market demand for lower cost devices in the network.
