Chapter 2: Duties of relevant persons Section 8: Duty to comply with security requirements
This Section places an obligation on a manufacturer of a product to comply with any relevant security requirements relating to that product where one of two conditions in subsections (2) and (3) is met.
	Subsection (2) sets out the first condition and establishes that the duty applies where the manufacturer intends for, is aware that, or ought to be aware that, the product will be a "UK consumer connectable product", which is defined in Section 54.
	Subsection (3) sets out the second condition and ensures that this duty continues to apply when a product is in use by a customer (as it has become a "UK consumer connectable product"). The manufacturer has a duty to comply where the manufacturer intended, was aware, or ought to have been aware that the product would become a "UK consumer connectable product" at the point where the manufacturer made the product available.
