UL Certified Cybersecurity Professional Training in Automotive

With the rising role of electronics in automobiles, cybersecurity has increasingly become a critical aspect of product design and development. The release of ISO/SAE 21434 standard in August 2021 provides automotive OEMs and its suppliers base a set of requirements and a framework to standardize their cybersecurity efforts.

This three-day course is designed to help engineers, developers, project leaders and quality managers gain a better understanding of the security processes required by ISO/SAE 21434 standard and their impact on the lifecycle of the automotive components and systems, and its impact on the automotive industry.

During the training, UL’s expert instructors will talk through exercises and examples to show attendees how requirements and concepts in the ISO/SAE 21434 standard are applied.

• become familiar with real life attacks in the automotive domain.
• define the state of the art in terms of security in embedded and automotive ecosystems, and main cybersecurityconcepts, e.g. assets, threats, threat agents, attacks, attack vectors, attack surfaces, vulnerabilities, risks, mitigations, etc.
• gain an overview of existing threats and countermeasure methods.

Target audience

• Engineers of organizations involved in engineering design and development of automotive electrical and electronic systems and sub-systems
• Experienced developers, project leaders, quality managers, and testers who are developing secure components in automotive that will be based on the ISO/SAE 21434 standards
• Managers seeking a better understanding of the cybersecurity of automotive electronic systems and the ISO/SAE 21434 standard standards
• Quality and safety professionals intended to be engaged in ISO/SAE 21434 compliance

Examination

Participants who complete the three-day training are eligible to take a two-hour certification exam on the afternoon of the third day.

Those who pass the exam are individually certified as a UL Certified Cybersecurity Professional inAutomotive or UL-CCSP.

Upon the successful completion of the UL-CCSP exam, participants will receive a certificate and badge that they can use to demonstrate their competence in cybersecurity for automotive systems.

The certification is good for three years,after which individuals may recertify.
