SEGULA TECHNOLOGIES AND C2A SECURITY PARTNER TO IMPROVE CYBERSECURITY IN THE AUTOMOTIVE CHAIN

The rise of connected cars, a market that is expected to exceed 166 billion dollars by 2025, has forced manufacturers to quickly tackle a new challenge: balancing between consumers’ demand for rich, in-vehicle experiences to the deployment speed of new software products and features. Electronic components, embedded software and the constant addition of connections have also made vehicles more vulnerable to cyber threat and transformed all stages of the traditional automotive production chain. Design, industrialization and life cycle are now subject to increasingly strict standards and regulatory requirements in terms of security, to which manufacturers must comply, especially with the UN R155 – ISO/SAE21434, applicable since July 2022.

SEGULA Technologies, a world leader in automotive engineering, and C2A Security, a world-renowned expert in automotive cybersecurity, have decided to combine their strengths to offer car makers and mobility companies in this highly competitive market a new range of cybersecurity services, allowing them to test their vehicles’ resistance to cyber threats and to meet new automotive security regulations and standards like the WP.29 or the ISO/SAE 21434.

The new partners will deploy a strategic business line across SEGULA’s 30 countries of operation, incorporating a full range of cyber risk assessment and remediation analysis solutions in order to easily ensure compliance to the new cybersecurity regulations, designed to support all stages of development of the automotive chain and covering all the segments of the sector, from the vehicle to the charging station.
