SGS Awards RED Cybersecurity Certification to Robustel for an Industrial Router
Robustel has achieved RED cybersecurity certification for its industrial high-speed router
The European Union’s (EU) RED Delegated Act on cybersecurity aims to strengthen the cybersecurity of internet-connected radio products sold in the EU. It becomes mandatory for wireless devices and products accessing EU markets from August 1, 2025, after which manufacturers must be compliant or face potential action.
The R1520-4L Global is Robustel’s latest 4G router providing wireless connectivity to industrial M2M and IoT applications. Achieving the enhanced cybersecurity standard EN 18031 confirms that it meets the EU’s RED certification 2014/53/EU and qualifies for EU market access.
Desmond Kuang, General Manager IoT Business Unit of Robustel said: “As a company committed to delivering secure, compliant industrial IoT solutions for global markets, we are delighted to have achieved RED cybersecurity certification from SGS. This proof of compliance with EU regulations will boost trust in our products amongst international customers.”
SGS, an accredited Notified Body (NB) for RED, delivers comprehensive and independent product testing against the standard’s stringent requirements. Working closely with the Robustel team, headquartered in Guangzhou, China, SGS undertook a thorough review of its technical documentation to identify issues and mitigate risks. This was followed by in-depth product testing across key cybersecurity areas including access control, authentication, secure communication, data storage, logging, traffic control and cryptography.
Anson Luo, Head of SGS-CSTC Cybersecurity Service, said: “It was a pleasure to support Robustel to verify its product compliance with the new EU standard. As more and more products employ radio technology in their applications, and many of these devices connect to the internet, security threats for products to be attacked and exploited increase. We look forward to supporting retailers and manufacturers around the world to meet the new requirements in the months ahead.”
