The use of computers, tablets, smartphones, smart clocks, smartmeters, GPS systems and so on bring a common benefit to all those who access such technologies, but at the same time such systems have a fundamental influence on the individual privacy. In this way, it becomes imperative in our society to have a system that allows homologating and certifying cyber-nature products. The present article aims to portray a diagnosis of the approval and certification processes for products of cybernetic nature by public agencies in Brazil with a view to developing a National System for approval and certification. In order to develop the diagnosis, document research was carried out in bodies responsible for certification of technological products and case studies were carried out in five public and private organizations. The results of these studies were systematized to be validated by a focal group of specialists. There was a shared view of companies and bodies regarding the aspect of product certification, but there was no consensus on the homologation procedures. Also were identified some processes performed by government agencies that are outside the traditional scope of homologation.
