Automotive Cybersecurity Consulting

These days, cybersecurity decides whether your vehicle reaches the market at all. We help OEMs and suppliers build a security posture that holds up, from secure-by-design strategy to CSMS readiness, before it ever becomes a type-approval blocker.

Security Decisions Made Early Cost the Least

Under UN R155/R156 and AIS-189/190, an OEM can't get type approval without an approved Cybersecurity Management System (CSMS). And the cheapest time to build one is at the concept stage, not after a vulnerability turns up in a vehicle that's already shipped.

Our consultants build security into your engineering process from the start: threat modelling, secure architecture, and a CSMS your auditors will recognise. The payoff is that compliance becomes a by-product of good engineering, instead of a scramble at the end.

Where Our Consultants Add Value

Secure-by-Design Architecture

Security requirements and architecture defined alongside your system design, not bolted on once it's too late to change cheaply.

TARA & Threat Modelling

ISO/SAE 21434-aligned Threat Analysis and Risk Assessment, so you spend effort on the risks that actually matter.

Learn more

CSMS Strategy & Implementation

We build the Cybersecurity Management System UN R155/R156 and AIS-189/190 require, and map it onto the processes you already run.

Learn more

Cybersecurity Governance

The roles, policies and evidence trails that hold up when an auditor starts asking questions.

Supply-Chain Security

We help you pass ISO/SAE 21434 expectations down to your Tier-1 and Tier-2 suppliers.

Compliance Gap Analysis

A clear, honest baseline of where you stand against every regulation that applies to you.

A Clear Path From Risk to Readiness

  1. Discover

    We review your architecture, your processes, and the regulations that apply to you.

  2. Assess

    A TARA and gap analysis establish your real risk and your true compliance baseline.

  3. Design

    We define the security requirements, the CSMS structure, and a prioritised roadmap.

  4. Enable

    We support the implementation and get your evidence ready for audit and type approval.

Engagement Models That Fit How You Work

Project

A defined scope with fixed deliverables, such as a TARA, a CSMS gap assessment, or an architecture review.

Retainer

Ongoing advisory access, for programmes that need security input across many milestones.

Embedded

A consultant working inside your engineering team for the length of a development cycle.

Common Questions

As early as concept design. Security requirements defined at the architecture stage are far cheaper to build in than fixes made after testing, or worse, out in the field.
A Cybersecurity Management System is the set of processes UN R155/R156 and AIS-189/190 require an OEM to operate. Without an approved one, you can't achieve type approval in those markets.
Yes. We map the security activities onto your current V-model or Agile workflow. We don't ask you to replace what already works.
Both. Our consulting connects straight to our in-house testing lab and compliance teams, so the advice we give turns into verified evidence, not just a slide deck.
