Espressif's ESP32-C3 Achieves CLS-Ready Certification, Paving the Way for Enhanced Security in IoT Devices

Shanghai, China

Espressif reinforces its dedication to ensuring the security and integrity of data transmitted by devices equipped with ESP32-C3.

Espressif Systems, a leading provider of wireless systems-on-chip (SoCs) and modules for the Internet of Things (IoT) is proud to announce that its ESP32-C3 and ESP8685 series have had their CLS-Ready certification completed. This demonstrates Espressif's commitment to robust cybersecurity standards in IoT devices.

ESP32-C3, a powerful and energy-efficient SoC, has gained recognition for its versatility and performance in a wide range of IoT applications. With the above-mentioned certification, Espressif reinforces its dedication to ensuring the security and integrity of data transmitted by devices equipped with ESP32-C3.

The CLS-Ready certification is tremendously rigorous and is conducted by the Cyber Security Agency of Singapore (CSA), a leading authority in cybersecurity. This certification ensures that ESP32-C3 adheres to the industry's best practices and complies with the necessary security requirements for operating securely in a connected environment. The CLS-Ready certification also covers a comprehensive set of requirements, including cryptography, secure boot, and secure update mechanisms, which ensure that devices are protected against a variety of cyber threats. 

Furthermore, the CLS-Ready certification functions as a complement to the Cybersecurity Labelling Scheme (CLS). This allows CLS-Ready products to leverage the security functionality provided by CLS-Ready-certified platforms and, therefore, meet the CLS Level 4 requirements. As a result, smart-product manufacturers may focus on end-device functionality, rather than investing heavily into developing the cybersecurity aspects of these devices in the first place.

Espressif is committed to delivering cutting-edge IoT solutions with a strong emphasis on security. The CLS-Ready certification for ESP32-C3 is a testament to our dedication to providing our customers with the highest level of security in their connected devices. ESP32-C3 has been built to provide an affordable security solution to all and, thus, integrates a variety of security features, such as Secure Boot, Flash Encryption, Protecting Debug Interfaces, Secure Storage, Memory Protection, and Device Identity protection.

For any commercial enquiries about building your next securely connected devices with an Espressif product, you can get in touch with our customer support team, who will try to assist you as soon as possible.
