CEA, or Consumer Electronics Association, is a standards organization that develops and promotes technical standards for consumer electronics, including cybersecurity protocols. In the context of cybersecurity, CEA is often referenced for its standards such as CEA-852, which defines the method for running LonTalk protocol over IP networks. This integration allows legacy control systems to communicate securely and efficiently over modern digital infrastructures. CEA standards help ensure interoperability, security, and reliability across a wide range of connected devices, making them crucial for manufacturers and integrators aiming for robust cybersecurity in consumer and industrial environments.
