Infineon attains ISO/SAE 21434 certification for SLI37 auto security

Munich, Germany – 30 January 2024 – Infineon Technologies AG (FSE: IFX / OTCQX: IFNNY) to receive the ISO/SAE 21434 cybersecurity certification for its SLI37 automotive security controller family. This enables a high level of security with ISO/SAE-compliant products. It will facilitate customer integration into automotive applications, such as secured devices for V2X (Vehicle-to-everything) communication. It follows the certification of Infineon’s cybersecurity management system, which was announced in November 2022. SLI37 is a device that offers an integrated security solution for automotive systems, including electronic control units (ECUs) and on-board diagnostics. The certification ensures that SLI37 is reliable and secure in its functionality. Moreover, it can help prevent potential security threats in vehicles.

“At Infineon, we are constantly improving our security offering,” said Sebastien Colle, Vice President ‘Security’ at Infineon. “We enable our customers to easily demonstrate their compliance with ISO/SAE 21434. I take particular pride in using the Common Criteria certification as a bridge to demonstrate compliance with ISO/SAE 21434. Furthermore, this is a testament to the power of Common Criteria as a generic tool that can serve application verticals. With the combination of ISO/SAE 21434 and CC EAL6+ (high) certificates, Infineon’s SLI37 controllers provide the best benchmark for security verification in the automotive world today.”

The hardware-based security features of ISO/SAE 21434 certified devices can provide a reliable foundation for a multi-layered security architecture, enabling a root-of-trust. Moreover, this plays an important role in the automotive industry, where system security is mandatory for vehicle safety. Therefore, Infineon’s SLI37 automotive cybersecurity solutions provide a secured foundation for automotive applications to comply with the ISO/SAE 21434 standard.

TÜV-IT GmbH, an accredited and independent security evaluator, conducted a security evaluation as part of the certification process. Moreover, the evaluation concluded that the products have demonstrated resistance to attackers with high attack potential. Protection encompasses defense from various threats, including physical attacks like fault, spike, power, and side channel analysis for comprehensive security.
