Proven methodology

Our audits are conducted by independent auditors using a standards-driven methodology, backed by years of experience with automotive norms like ISO 26262 and security management systems such as ISO/IEC 27001. We incorporate recent developments to provide transparent conformity declarations and industry benchmarks such as the ISO PAS 5112 “Guidelines for auditing cybersecurity engineering” and the VDA QMC’s yellow volume “Automotive Cybersecurity Management System Audit”.

Our proven approach

We start with a preparatory meeting to familiarize you and your stakeholders with the audit approach and prepare for on-site interviews. Our auditors conduct these interviews to create a standardized record of evidence for activities and processes. We analyze the evidence, identify gaps, highlight strengths, and derive recommendations for improvement. We conclude with an on-site workshop to explain the findings and translate recommendations into an actionable, prioritized roadmap.
