Mastering Cross-Divisional Cybersecurity Risk Management in the Automotive Industry

Modern cars are interconnected systems of software, sensors, and cloud services. As automotive companies divide their work across engineering, production, and backend divisions, cybersecurity risks often fall through the cracks. While standards such as ISO/SAE 21434, the ISO/IEC 27000 family, and the IEC 62443 series provide important building blocks, none fully explain how to align cybersecurity across divisions. Our research at Fraunhofer AISEC reveals the consequences: hard-to-compare risk assessments, unclear communication, and fragmented security strategies. The solution lies in a cross-divisional approach that connects processes, tools, and terminology. Based on a structured analysis of key cybersecurity standards and interviews with experts from six automotive manufacturers, this article contrasts what the standards expect with how organizations work today – and outlines concrete steps to close the gaps.

Automated cloud certification with EMERALD: Architecture, evidence, and trustworthy security

In the face of growing complexity and regulatory requirements, the security of cloud services is becoming increasingly challenging. However, conventional certification procedures require considerable financial and time investment to meet these requirements. That is why the EU research project EMERALD is pursuing a new approach: It is developing a framework for continuous, automated security certification based on semantically structured evidence. This article will discuss the concepts, methods, and validation approaches of the EMERALD platform.

Towards Classical Software Verification using Quantum Computers

In this post, we explore the possibility of accelerating the formal verification of classical programs using quantum computers. Common programming errors, such as null-pointer dereference and out-of-bound access, are prevalent sources of security flaws. Our approach involves generating a Satisfiability (SAT) instance from code snippets, which is satisfiable if the undesired behavior exists. This instance is then converted into an optimization problem, solved using quantum algorithms, thus potentially achieving asymptotically polynomial speedup.
