The SESIP Governance document describes the governance process for the Security Evaluation Standard for IoT Platforms (SESIP). The document specifies the competencies and accreditations required for the Certification Bodies and for the Laboratories performing evaluation activities, and the process that a Certification Body (CB) shall follow to issue a certificate of compliance.

Version 1.1 adds a procedure to manage CB onboarding and recognition between CBs. An action is currently ongoing to clarify the structure of the CB recognition board and the associated decision process, but to clarify the rules for a new CB it was important to have some basic rules and an associated timeline.
