Gain your official certification in automotive cybersecurity in accordance with UN Regulation No. 155 and ISO/SAE 21434. Our industry-established and globally recognised personal certifications provide organisations and individuals with robust proof of competence. With TÜV Rheinland Certified Qualification.
With the growing importance of cybersecurity for increasingly connected and, in the future, even autonomous vehicles, purely self-taught learning or the selective acquisition of specialist knowledge is no longer sufficient.
Systematically reducing cyber risks, avoiding cyber threats and ensuring trouble-free processes throughout a vehicle’s product lifecycle are essential to ensure the safety of drivers, passengers and the environment.
Therefore, not only cybersecurity knowledge needs to be imparted to a large number of developers, engineers, cybersecurity specialists and other stakeholders. Organizations (manufacturers and suppliers) must also demonstrate this competence.
As part of their compliance with legal obligations such as UN R155, they must systematically demonstrate in-depth expertise in the field of cybersecurity engineering for vehicle development and also be able to prove that they have established a cybersecurity culture.
Official certification programs with examinations and comprehensive knowledge assessments are essential for this.
These programs must not only issue simple certificates of attendance, but must also ensure a thorough assessment of the training content provided. The ACP Framework of the CYEQT Knowledge Base (formerly CYRES Academy) is one such competence management model that meets these requirements in accordance with ISO/SAE 21434 and UN R155.
Our certification program covers the requirements and content of ISO/SAE 21434 and UN R155, ensuring that regulatory requirements are met
While the training courses (training/videos) are trained and prepared by experts, TÜV Rheinland carries out the subsequent certifications as an independent testing authority
