A wide range of Squire’s products have achieved the Police Preferred Specification including bicycle security products, garage door protectors and vehicular roller shutter doors, locks and hardware, safes and secure enclosures and motorcycle security. Squire’s Inigma Diamond BL1 D Lock, Inigma FL1 Folding Lock & Inigma IC1 Integrated Chain Lock have now achieved the SBD Secure Connected Device accreditation.

Michelle Kradolfer, SBD’s IoT Technical Officer, said: “I am beyond delighted that Squire have become one of the first companies to achieve the Secure Connected Device accreditation and have demonstrated that their products have undergone and achieved the appropriate IoT standards and certifications. With the rise in IoT and smart devices being sold in the UK market, now more than ever it is essential for companies to play their part in ensuring IoT products are built securely to protect their consumers.

“Obtaining the Secure Connected Device accreditation builds confidence and trust in Squire’s products. We hope that other companies within the industry and beyond will take note of this achievement and follow in Squire’s footsteps in producing safe IoT products for the UK market.”
