SDV Industry

Secure Software-Defined Vehicles
in Compliance with Industry Regulations

SDV architecture exposes the automotive industry to new cybersecurity challenges and risks. From supply-chain flattening to frequent software releases, application virtualization, ECU consolidation and other challenges. Additionally, the industry has adopted various global regulatory requirements, the ISO/SAE 21434 standard, the UN R155 regulation, and the Chinese GB standard. Full standard compliance towards cybersecurity posture.

Embracing Change

As cars become a service platform, OEMs are adopting on-demand features, third-party applications, and services, accompanied by safety-critical and cybersecurity OTA updates. ECU consolidation allows virtual machines and containers a reduction from 80-100 ECUs to a few in-vehicle domain controllers.

Cyber Risks in Third-Party Applications

The supply-chain pyramid model is being replaced by a flattened one, with shorter release intervals and lower costs. However, this increases the security risk for the in-vehicle software, as third-party applications are exposing vehicle owners to safety and privacy issues. The regulatory compliance demands are forcing OEMs and Tier-1 suppliers to identify cybersecurity issues, including in software supplied by third-party suppliers.
