Automotive Cybersecurity Management Systems - WP.29, ISO 21434, and VDA CSMS

Course Duration: 2 Days - 8 Hours/day

Omnex is not a VDA or VDA-QMC licensed training provider.

Worldwide, the automotive industry is in the process of implementing cybersecurity in their vehicles. This is a challenging effort as there are several relevant standards, guidelines, and regulations that need to be implemented including management aspects. ISO/SAE 21434:2021 is a management-based cybersecurity standard and WP.29 has a requirement for a cybersecurity management system (CSMS) to be implemented by OEMs. In addition, the UNECE requires an audit of the CSMS of OEMs and an assessment with regard to cybersecurity as part of their approval.

This two-day course provides guidance developed by VDA which can be applied to the CSMS audit of both the OEM and the contractual partner. The course will also cover ISO 27001, WP.29 requirements, and an overview of ISO/SAE 21434:2021.
