- Keysight’s device security research lab can now conduct vehicle
type approval evaluations under UN R155 / R156 regulations
- Automotive security regulations become a requirement for all
new vehicles produced for United Nations Economic Commission for
Europe countries beginning July 2024
Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS), device security
research lab, Riscure Security Solutions, has received formal
approval from the Netherlands Vehicle Authority (RDW) to become a
designated technical service provider for approval of the United
Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) R155 and R156
regulations.
Created by the World Forum for Harmonization of Vehicle
Regulations (WP.29), the UNECE R155 and R156 regulations establish
cybersecurity and software update requirements to strengthen the
safety and security of automotive systems. UN R155 outlines
cybersecurity requirements for vehicle manufacturers and applies to
specific vehicle types across all phases of development,
production, and post-production. UN R156 specifies software update
requirements for vehicle manufacturers and applies to specific
vehicle types exclusively during the post-production phase,
excluding the development and production phases.
Through this approval, Riscure Security Solutions can now
conduct vehicle type approvals according to the UNECE WP.29
regulations, which become a requirement for all new vehicles
produced beginning July 2024 for all UNECE countries. Achieving UN
R155 and UN R156 compliance from the RDW agency covers vehicles in
all 27 European Union countries and 37 countries worldwide,
including Australia, Japan, South Korea, and the United
Kingdom.
With Riscure Security Solutions, Keysight further expands its
support for automakers and the entire automotive supply chain,
providing a comprehensive range of solutions to assess vehicle
safety, security, performance, and compliance throughout the
complete life cycle of the products.
Marc Witteman, Director of the Device Security Research Lab
at Keysight, said: “When we evaluate a component or a system
for potential security vulnerabilities, we take into account
existing threats and capabilities of an adversary, as well as
attack types that may become relevant in the future. Being prepared
for the threats of tomorrow is critical in automotive, where the
average life cycle of a component is often measured in decades.
Approval from RDW marks an important milestone for Keysight,
solidifying our position as a trusted partner in ensuring vehicle
safety, security, and regulatory compliance.”
