According to the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI): “Manufacturers of 5G communication components can have the cybersecurity properties of their products independently verified, thus fulfilling the certification obligation for critical network components under the Telecommunications Act. The national certification scheme also serves as a model for a future European certification proposal under Regulation (EU) 2019/881 (Cybersecurity Act, CSA).” It continues: “With the experience gained, BSI is actively involved in the design of this future European 5G certification scheme (EU5G) with the aim of driving secure digitalization in Europe.”.
