Open Trusted Technology Provider Standard

Have you heard of the "open trusted technology provider standard" or "OTTPS"? It's a set of guidelines for companies that make technology products to follow.

Let me explain it to you like you're 5:

When people make toys, they have to make sure the toys are safe for you to play with. They have to follow rules and guidelines to make sure the toys won't hurt you.

The same thing goes for companies that make technology products, like computers and phones. The OTTPS is like a set of rules for those companies to follow so that they make products that are safe to use and don't harm people's privacy or security.

For example, if you have a phone, you don't want anyone else to be able to see your messages or photos, right? The OTTPS helps companies make sure their products have good security and protect your privacy.

So, the open trusted technology provider standard is basically a set of guidelines that helps technology companies make safe and secure products for people to use.
