We accompany your product throughout the whole product lifecycle by understanding the specific industry and market demands. We assist you to find the best cybersecurity solution while analyzing the specific threats and risk of your product. Our cybersecurity engineers support you to create the cyber-resilient products for the future

Cybersecurity Development Lifecycle

• SECURITY BY DESIGN

  The cybersecurity threat and risk analysis (TARA) is the starting point to bring robust cybersecurity into your product.
  Marquardt has got deep knowledge in creation of cybersecurity risk analysis based on various products like access systems, several user interfaces systems and battery management systems. Including wireless communication systems. Based on our “cybersecurity mainline” which collects experiences from past projects and maintains it, we live secure-by-design in everydays work without loosing efficiency: In TARAs, in Architectures, in Detail designs, in Security Plans.

• CYBERSECURITY IN THE CONCEPT & DEVELOPMENT PHASE

  Marquardt is already for decades a reliable partner in automotive embedded systems, connectivity and products in the (smart) home area. Together with product cybersecurity expertise we can offer customers even more benefits during innovation and development phase. Using our cybersecurity expertise, we can offer to guide you during concept and development phases to optimize your product that it contains the suitable level of cybersecurity protection. Examples: review of cybersecurity plan and architectures, verification and validations methodologies.

• CYBERSECURITY OPERATION CENTER (SOC)

  Our Product Cybersecurity Incident Response Team (PSIRT) monitors your products and conducts analysis. Communication channels to all needed parties are set up with focus to ensure need-to-know principle.   Our experts are executing all steps to resolve potential vulnerability and security incidents properly (like monitoring, triage, remediation concepts, incident response, disclosure).

• VULNERABILITY MANAGEMENT

  Hardware and Software vulnerabilities are a threat to todays connected products in any industry and any market. The personal data and safety of all people and the reputation of companies are in danger when unresolved vulnerabilities are present and not managed properly. Marquardt scans regularly the hardware and software parts of your product based on a cybersecurity digital twin solution. Our experts keep an eye on every digital twin element in every lifecycle state (like development, production, field) and react and report in time to OEMs and partners.

• REGULATORY AND STANDARD REQUIREMENTS

  Marquardt is following since years the development of IT Security and Product Cybersecurity from both: national authorities and international standards. Examples: UNECE R 155, ISO/SAE 21434, ISO 27001, TISAX, EU Cyber Resilience Act, AIS 189 Understanding these requirements is crucial, since their fulfillment decides if products can be brought into markets in the world - or no. We continuously improve our cybersecurity management and process capabilities, making us a reliable partner.

• CYBERSECURITY STATE OF THE ART SOLUTIONS

  Our experts in the development department for cybersecurity have a continuously close look to institutes and national authorities like the NIST and BSI to follow recommendations and state of the art for technical cybersecurity design (like secure controls, secure primitives). This way, our experts guide OEMs and our development teams to the best product solutions by not only covering the requirements and recommendations of today, but also to make your products resilient against the hacking attacks of tomorrow.

• QUALITY ASSURANCE

  Marquardt’s quality assurance team is monitoring continuously and independent from the development teams the maturity of process fulfillment and product maturity. The team has a longtime experience and is set up with certified process experts for cybersecurity (ISO/SAE 21434), functional safety (ISO 262626) and product maturity (like Automotive SPICE). These experts continuously challenge the product development teams for compliance against standards like UNECE R 155, ISO/SAE 21434, ISO/PAS 5112.
