3S - SAFE AND SECURE SYSTEMS

3S – Safe & Secure Systems

Autonomous car concept. Driverless vehicle.

Introduction

We are your partner for the development of safe and secure systems. Functional Safety, Cyber and Information Security have become increasingly critical aspects of the overall product design and development in various industry branches. With our expertise in this area we assist not only in the application of Functional Safety and Cyber and Information Security Standards but also in establishing a lasting safety and security culture.

Approach

Our approach is skill-oriented and industry open. We combine cross-industry standards, like ISO2700x series and NIST SP-800 security framework, with industry-related norms, like ISO/SAE21434 or ISO 26262 for automotive.

Cyber Security and Functional Safety have close interfaces and synergies and for this reason we appeal to our well-established expertise from the latter in order to leverage combined risk and threat analysis, as well as safe and secure design and architecture.

Machinery

IEC 61508 – ISO 13849 – IEC 62021

The machine industry is subject to the Machinery Directive and a set of different, harmonized standards that are linked to it.

Automotive

ISO 26262 – ISO/PAS 21448 – ISO 21434

The automotive industry is evolving dynamically, maybe now more than ever. And standards and regulatory frameworks must keep pace with it.

ISO26262

We support our customers in implementing the classical ISO26262 processes as per ASIL B from scratch; as well as in mentoring and coaching it, to establish an independent safety culture able to cope with the complete safety life cycle.

ISO 21434

The automotive cyber security standard focusses mainly on systematic approaches how to treat and mange risks in the automotive field. Risks must be treated (avoid, reduce, share/transfer, accept/retain) and cybersecurity concepts and requirements are a risk reduction measure in that respect.

ISO/PAS 21448

We just built up our competences in the recently released ISO/PAS 21448 (SOTIF) standard and support one of our customer to perform a software dependency analysis (DFA) for a level 4 autonomy highway pilot.

Railway

EN50126 – EN50128 – EN50129

The railway industry is, like machinery, a highly regulated industry where the conformity with technical standards has a binding relation to directives and legal requirements.

EN50126 / EN50128 / EN50129

We provide consultancy regarding the generic RAMS process standard EN50126, as well as corresponding technical standards for communication and signaling systems, related to software EN-50128 and to hardware EN-50129. Our expertise also reaches the overall and cross-industry Functional Safety norm, IEC61508.

Medical

IEC 60601 – MDR / FDA

The medical industry is a very high demanding and sensitive industry where the conformity with regulated standards has a binding relation to directives and legal requirements.

IEC 60601

We provide consultancy regarding the IEC 60601 standard for the safety of medical electrical equipment. The IEC 60601-1 standard contains the general specifications for the safety of electrical medical devices and is intended to ensure that a first fault with regard to the electrical, mechanical, thermal or functional properties does not pose an unacceptable risk to the patient or the user.
