ISO/IEC TS 5723:2022(E)
Introduction
Recent times have seen an increase in the complexity of integrating technology bringing together
various viewpoints. Some examples of this are the convergence of operational technologies (OT) and
information technologies (IT) as seen in the Internet of Things (IoT), the rise of big data and artificial
intelligence (AI).
The complexity as well as the criticality, from both a safety and a mission point of view, have given
rise to the need to communicate both the trustworthiness of products, services and technologies, and
the trustworthiness of organizations that are providing these. Having a common understanding of
the characteristics that can be used to describe trustworthiness and a common way of defining the
vocabulary and characteristics will allow stakeholders to make a judgement as to whether a product,
service or technology meets the stakeholder expectations.
This document is primarily intended for use horizontally in an IT domain. It is applicable to all domains
in which IT is used.
The terms and definitions in subclause 3.2 are extracted from the ISO and the IEC vocabulary
repositories. Where multiple definitions are given, those that best fit the current context of
trustworthiness have been selected. For some characteristics, multiple definitions have been retained
for different domains.
The terms and definitions in subclause 3.3 are provided for completeness.
