Correct implementation of cybersecurity in every phase of vehicle development requires expertise to fulfill security requirements at the level of individual components, in software, during implementation/integration, and for the entire vehicle. Only then does cybersecurity become a driver for quality in development. With our Cybersecurity Engineering Check-Up, we can support your cybersecurity development projects according to your needs. Please get in touch with us.
We provide customized cybersecurity support for your engineering and development
As vehicles are becoming more and more connected, the risk of cyberattacks is growing exponentially. OEMs and tier-N suppliers are faced with the mammoth task of not only developing advanced vehicles efficiently along the highest quality requirements, but also adequately considering cybersecurity in development work.
Cybersecurity engineering is becoming a bottleneck. It is necessary to make the required cybersecurity know-how available within one’s own organization and to contribute to development work at full speed. Advanced training and education are aiming in the right direction, but they do not meet the practical requirement that cybersecurity issues are accompanied by enormous time pressure. Regardless of whether resources are simply lacking or an organization is confronted with these tasks for the first time, there is a demand for support to be put in place.
With the offer of the Cybersecurity Engineering Check Up by CYRES Consulting we have created an entry point where we support your development teams with our Cybersecurity Engineering expertise in vehicle development project-specific and cross-project as strategic and/or operational support around Cybersecurity quality. This creates a win-win situation: your internal teams learn without you taking risks for the product.
Cybersecurity for Developers and Engineers
Leverage our expertise to effortlessly integrate cybersecurity into your projects. Without losing sight of the schedule and constraints of your development project. Tailored to software and hardware projects and their required cybersecurity requirements and work products.
Support for Cybersecurity Engineers
