The ITU-T Study Group 17 (SG17) is a statutory group of the ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) concerned with security.[1][2] The group is concerned with a broad range of security-related standardization issues such as cybersecurity, security management, security architectures and frameworks, countering spam, identity management, biometrics, protection of personally identifiable information, and the security of applications and services for the Internet of Things (IoT).[3][4] It is responsible for standardization of i.a. ASN.1 and X.509, it was also the parent body of the Focus Group on Quantum Information Technology (FG-QIT). The group is currently chaired by Arnaud Taddei of Broadcom Europe.[5][6][7]

Administratively, SG17 is a statutory meeting of the World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA),[8] which creates the ITU-T Study Groups and appoints their management teams. The secretariat is provided by the Telecommunication Standardization Bureau (under Director Seizo Onoe).
