GMV collaborates in defining the new ISO / SAE 21434 standard on cybersecurity in automotive engineering

Norma ISO SAE

On 31 August, SAE International (Society of Automotive Engineers), in collaboration with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), officially published Standard ISO/SAE 21434: 2021 “Road vehicles — cybersecurity engineering”

This standard will help the automotive industry to define a structured process to guarantee cybersecurity is included in the design of electrical and electronic (E/E) systems in road vehicles, and thus address the changing pace of new technologies and new cyberattacks.

The standard, developed by a technical committee of experts (ISO/TC 22/SC 32/WG 11) including participation from GMV, is a major milestone in cybersecurity for the automotive industry as it will enable organisations to define cybersecurity policies and processes, manage cybersecurity risks, and foster a cybersecurity culture.

ISO/SAE 21434 was developed in parallel to the mandatory regulation UNECE WP.29 / R155, to provide a harmonised regulatory framework for developing secure vehicles.

Today’s vehicles work with several different technologies for connectivity and autonomous driving, hence they are sensitive to various threats and vulnerable to cyberattacks.

For several years, GMV has been working to make automotive cybersecurity a reality, incorporating it throughout the product life cycle, including hardware, software, ECUs and remote vehicle supply platforms to encourage the principle of “security by design”.

The services GMV offers its clients include support in complying not only with the principles of ISO/SAE 21434, but also the scope of UNECE WP.29 / R155 and making better use of secure development best practices in the automotive industry.
