More About Drivesec
Drivesec focuses on cybersecurity for automotive, transportation, and embedded electronic systems, working with vehicle manufacturers, Tier‑1 suppliers, and technology providers that build connected and software‑defined vehicle platforms. Its services cover the design, verification, and validation of security controls across in-vehicle networks, ECUs, and backend connectivity, with the goal of aligning technical implementations with current automotive cybersecurity regulations and standards.
The company’s consulting and engineering services (security consulting) address threat analysis, risk assessment, and security concept design for vehicle E/E architectures and embedded platforms. Engagements typically consider attack vectors across CAN, LIN, FlexRay, and Ethernet in-vehicle networks, as well as over‑the‑air (OTA) update channels, telematics units, and Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) communication interfaces. Drivesec supports definition of security requirements and system architectures that implement cryptographic mechanisms, secure boot, SFU, and secure communication protocols relevant to automotive environments.
Drivesec provides security testing and assessment services (security testing), including penetration testing and vulnerability analysis of ECUs, gateways, telematics control units, and related embedded software. These activities often involve hardware and software analysis, fuzzing of communication interfaces, and review of secure coding practices for embedded applications. The objective is to identify implementation flaws and configuration weaknesses before production and to provide remediation guidance that can be integrated into Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and supplier development lifecycles.
An additional focus area is compliance support (compliance and governance) for frameworks that govern automotive cybersecurity management systems and product development. Drivesec aligns its methods with regulations and standards such as UNECE WP.29 R155/R156 and ISO/SAE 21434, helping organizations structure cybersecurity management systems, incident response procedures, and documentation required for vehicle type approval and homologation processes. This includes guidance on cybersecurity risk management, evidence generation, and coordination across OEM and supply chain stakeholders.
Drivesec also offers training and knowledge transfer services for engineering and management teams within OEMs, Tier‑1 suppliers, and technology vendors. Training topics cover automotive cybersecurity engineering processes, threat modeling for vehicle platforms, secure development practices for embedded systems, and the application of regulatory and standard requirements across the product lifecycle. In enterprise and institutional settings, Drivesec’s offerings map to categories such as application and embedded security services, product security consulting, compliance and governance for automotive cybersecurity, and specialized penetration testing for connected and embedded vehicle systems.
