Why did the European Commission delay the application of the essential requirements for RED-DA?
As you may know the Radio Equipment Directive 2014/53/EU1 has established a regulatory framework for placing radio equipment on the single market. It mainly concerns mandatory market access conditions for radio equipment. The Delegated Regulation entered into force on the 1st of February 2022 and was supposed to become applicable from August 2024.

Introduce the latest IoT device certification processes to deal with the frequent information security attacks
Whenever emerging technologies and applications appear in the market, problems sometimes arise that were not thought of when they were originally planned. This is just like the launch of Internet of Things (IoT) products. They are accompanied by some security attacks such as the Mirai Botnet in 2016 [1]. When we discuss the security attacks on the IoT products, we often find that the attacks are because users have not changed the default password of the IoT product login page. Moreover, users do not fully understand and are unfamiliar with the functions provided by IoT products, so that these products with remote login functions are exposed on the Internet.
