> "...ISO delegates expressed distrust and concerns that the U.S. agency could be promoting encryption technology it knew how to break, rather than the most secure." That was my first thought as well, but the article doesn't go into detail about the encryption plan. Are the encryption schemes all-new? Is the talk of a plan vague or are specific products or code bases being suggested? The fundamental question to me is whether IoT encryption is something relevant to national security. I think the lack of encryption is and that's why the NSA wants to see security shored up.
