The Explosive Power of Technological Progress – The New Scope of Cyber Security
Cyber Security Management Systems (CSMS) and Software Update Management Systems (SUMS) are becoming critical success factors for all industries and are already mandatory for the automotive industry. On the one hand, the Internet of Things (IoT) is a complex engine of progress, on the other hand offers countless points of attack for cybercrime with its numerous components. The increasingly complex IoT systems must offer the highest level of security. In the development of the connected car, which has itself become part of the IoT through its connectivity and makes autonomous driving and smart mobility concepts possible, cyber threats are also keeping up with the speed of technical progress. Today, there are already up to 150 control units and more than 100 million lines of software code in a vehicle, and the trend is rising. But even the current mobility infrastructure provides a haven for hackers, posing an immense cyber threat to vehicle manufacturers (OEMs) and their suppliers. Cyber security has become an essential issue in the hardware and software value chain. The authorities are also aware of the dangers and have made CSMS and SUMS mandatory for the automotive industry and relevant for approval for the type testing of vehicles (homologation). Not only in the automotive industry, but also in other industries whose products are connected to the IoT, such as the construction industry and the health industry, CSMS and SUMS will be critical to success in the future. Regulations are also expected for these industries in the future.

Cyber security regulations and standards at a glance
For many years, cyber security in the field of IoT was merely a self-imposed framework that was either adhered to or not. For a few years now, there have been national and international activities for the automotive industry to standardize CSMS and SUMS and audit them.
The implementation, operation, and maintenance of a CSMS as well as a SUMS have become an absolute necessity for automotive manufacturers who require type approval for their vehicles and sell them on European markets. Both manufacturers and suppliers are required to demonstrate compliance with the regulations for the vehicle and its components as laid down in the UN regulations (UNECE R 155 and R 156). These also include the requirement for certification in accordance with ISO 21434 “Road vehicles – Cybersecurity engineering” and ISO 24089 “Road vehicles – Software update engineering”.
The MCS-CSMS and the MCS-SUMS meet all the requirements of the UNECE regulations and also take into account all other regulations and framework conditions.
Further regulations, also for other industries, will surely follow in the next few years. The MCS-CSMS and the MCS-SUMS are continuously adapted to all new relevant framework conditions and mandatory regulations, so that with the MCS-CSMS and the MCS-SUMS you do not have to worry about whether all requirements are met. You are on the safe side with us!
