🎉ANEC turns3️⃣0️⃣! #ANEC30

#Consumers should not be expected to manage every online risk. Through its work in European and international #standardisation, ANEC calls for manufacturers and service providers to take greater responsibility for #cybersecurity.

#DigitalEU #CyberSecMonth #CyberSecEU #ThinkB4UClick
#Standards work best when shaped by all stakeholders together in partnership. #Inclusive and #sustainable #standardisation means outcomes that benefit everyone, not just economic actors.

Raising #standards for #consumers for 30 days.

#Standards are educational as well as technical. They protect citizens, promote #accessibility and power #sustainable, #green and #digital #transitions. @isostandards.bsky.social #WorldStandardsDay #Standards4SDGs

Raising #standards for #consumers for 30 years.
Public authorities are essential for #standardisation. Their enforcement ensures EU compliance, #sustainability & #accessibility. Speed in ICT must not harm safety, #sustainability or #consumer protection. @isostandards.bsky.social #WorldStandardsDay
Inclusiveness is still treated largely as access rather than a measure of results. This undermines the legitimacy of the system where harmonised #standards become part of EU law & impact #consumer rights, environmental sustainability & societal welfare. @isostandards.bsky.social #WorldStandardsDay
It’s World Standards Day 2025!

Celebrated the day with a fun member quiz on ANEC’s history, mission & importance of standardisation.

Congratulations to our champions:🏆 @DINConsumerCouncil & @cecuconsumo.bsky.social !
By strengthening #consumer protection, contributing to consumer well-being and embedding #inclusiveness, #sustainability and #accessibility, #standards can help deliver the objectives of the EU Consumer Agenda and the #SDGs.

@isostandards.bsky.social #WorldStandardsDay #Standards4SDGs #SDG17
#Standards work best through collaboration among industry, governments, #SMEs, #consumers and #civil #society. ANEC believes partnerships are key.

#WorldStandardsDay #standards4SDGs
Ahead of #WorldStandardsDay, ANEC Deputy DG Chiara Giovannini highlights how partnerships drive progress in #standardisation. As an Annex III & Partner Organisation of @cen-cenelec.bsky.social, ANEC keeps #consumers at the core of the green & digital transitions. #standards4SDGs
Clear design helps #consumers stay safe. Through its work on #standards, ANEC works to make #digital systems easier to use and understand, so that consumers can identify suspicious messages & avoid #phishing attempts.

#DigitalEU #CyberSecMonth #CyberSecEU #ThinkB4UClick #CyberSafety #SafetyByDesign
When a phishing message imitates a trusted service, #consumer confidence is damaged. ANEC supports stronger #standardisation & clearer rules to improve the #security & reliability of digital products & services, including through the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA).

ANEC is thrilled to speak today at the ETSI Security Conference 2025, sharing our consumer perspective on the panel “Reasonable Use of Digital Products and Systems by Reasonable People.

Phishing takes advantage of poor design such as unclear links, confusing interfaces or misleading & confusing communication. Through standards work, ANEC promotes security, privacy, accessibility & safety by design so consumers are protected from online threats before they occur. #CyberSecMonth
