White House and NIST issue Internet of Things Cyber Security Guidance

The Obama administration on Tuesday issued sweeping guidelines on cybersecurity for internet-connected devices, stressing an engineering-based approach that builds security systems directly into Internet of Things technology.
The Department of Homeland Security separately released its own cybersecurity policy for IoT devices on Tuesday, delineating six strategic principles that it believes will help stakeholders stop hackers from tampering with connected devices.
I haven't read either one but the brief description above sounds like a pretty sound approach.   Now what me need is some way to that the SDLC principles were followed during development.  There has been talk of a UL mark for cyber security, maybe it is time for something like that.

Edit - I forgot to link the source - It was Morning Consult
