ISO 21434 - Road Vehicles Cybersecurity for Automotive

In the advent of cooperative, connected and automated mobility, cars today are increasingly exposed to cyberattacks. These vehicles became „rolling, flying, floating networked computers”.
Cyberattacks could not only cause material damages, but they may put human lives in danger.The regulations (UN R155 and UN R156) will enter into force in the EU for new vehicle types from July 2022, after that from July 2024 onwards, for all newly manufactured cars. Under ISO/SAE 21434, car manufacturers will be responsible for complying with the regulations and being able to provide a high level of cybersecurity throughout their supply chain. 

Who needs to comply with ISO/SAE 21434?

  • vehicle manufacturers (OEM)
  • automotive industry suppliers

IEC 62443 - Industrial Control System Security for Automotive

IEC 62443 - Industrial Control System Security for Automotive

Organisations using IT products in their infrastructure have two policy-related questions: 

- whether new IT products can violate the security policy of their infrastructure, for example by giving unauthorised people access to certain data – a stepping stone to attacks on the infrastructure. 

- are the effort, skills and tools needed to hack the product less than the level of risk the company considers acceptable?
The Global Standard for the Security of Industrial Control System Networks (IEC) 62443 Security for Industrial Automation and Control Systems (IACS) was defined for this purpose: on device level (ISA/IEC 62443-4-2), and process level (ISA/IEC 62443-4-1) 

With applications in industries such as automotive, IEC 62443 is an important way for organisations to demonstrate compliance and due diligence and manage cyber risk.

  • Secure developer lifecycle and processes (ISA/IEC 62443-4-1) 
  • Certified and resilient components for industrial use (ISA/IEC 62443-4-2)

ISO 15408 - Common Criteria for Automotive

The Common Criteria for Information Technology Security Evaluation (Common Criteria or CC) is an international standard (ISO / IEC 15408) for IT product security certification. 

It is a framework that provides criteria for independent, scalable and globally recognized security inspections for IT products. Component certifications are relevant for suppliers aiming to gain competitive edge in addition to proven cybersecurity measures applied.

Suppliers can certify these type of devices for example

  • Microcontrollers
  • Secure Elements
  • Electronic Control Units

RED - Cybersecurity for Automotive

RED - Cybersecurity for Automotive

Wireless technology has a  significant impact on the automotive supply chain. As levels of connectivity increase, and we find ever-more complex technologies in the automotive industry, the compliance process becomes increasingly intricate and unpredictable.

Economic operators associated with the automotive industry have the EU’s Radio Equipment Directive 2014/53/EU (RED) to deal with, and must ensure that they have implemented their responsibilities accordingly. In 2021 the Commission has taken action to improve the cybersecurity of wireless devices available on the European market. This act lays down new legal requirements for cybersecurity safeguards, which manufacturers will have to take into account in the design and production of the concerned products.

The new cybersecurity measures will help to:

  • Improve network resilience
  • Better protect consumers' privacy
  • Reduce the risk of monetary fraud
