The new national standard can be used as a security layer for the LoRaWAN RU protocol (GOST R 71168-2023), NB-IoT, ZigBee, XNB, as well as for a number of industrial protocols.

High energy efficiency allows the use of the CRISP (CRyptographic Industrial Security Protocol) cryptographic protocol not only in automated process control systems (APCS), but also in IIoT systems powered by batteries or from the operating environment. The properties of the CRISP protocol allow it to be used to protect data transmitted both in TCP/IP networks and in networks built on other technologies used in industry.

in the ViPNet SIES solution brazil whatsapp number database products, aimed at protecting IoT networks and automated process control systems. According to the vendor's estimates, by 2024 alone, about 10 thousand devices using the CRISP protocol should be installed in intelligent electricity metering systems.

"The national standard was issued based on the document "Standardization Recommendation 1323565.1.029–2019". The protocol itself was developed in 2017-2018 in close cooperation with a number of Russian PLC manufacturers. The development was carried out from scratch, it did not use the developments or approaches of Western vendors. For a number of developed standards for industrial and IIoT protocols in recent years, TK 26 experts have recommended the use of the CRISP specification for the purpose of solving information security issues. For example, we are talking about the LoRaWAN RU protocol, which recently became GOST R 71168-2023, and the PIRS protocol GOST R 59966-2021. The document, as well as the standardization recommendation, was reviewed by the relevant technical committees - TC 016 "Electric Power Industry", TC 362 "Information Security", TC 023 "Oil and Gas Industry". The press service of JSC "InfoTeKS" reported such details about the work on the standard.

Deputy Director of the NTI Platform ANO, Chairman of TC 194 Cyber-Physical Systems Nikita Utkin noted in a commentary for ComNews that within the framework of the cooperation agreement between TC 26 and TC 194, systematic work is underway, including on topics related to both structures, and thanks to this, issues of practical implementation of almost all Internet of Things protocols, the development of which was carried out on the basis of TC 194, were worked out in a timely manner.

"The object of standardization of this document is cryptographic protection of information, which is the area of ​​responsibility of TC 26, so it did not require approval and was not agreed with TC 194. Of course, CRISP is not and is not positioned by developers as a replacement for previously approved Internet of Things protocols, including LoRaWAN RU, NB-Fi, OpenUNB, OpenRAN, etc. Its use is assumed as a protection layer for them. The field of cryptographic protection of information is rightfully considered one of the most conservative, since the price of an error in this area can be extremely painful. It is no coincidence in this context that the standard was developed on the basis of the standardization recommendations R 1323565.1.029-2019 after their long-term testing with the participation of an important industry player in the person of InfoTeKS. We are confident that this document will generate noticeable interest in the market, as well as all documents submitted for approval by TC 26," said Nikita Utkin.
