QNX ISO accreditation will reassure and support global automakers as pressure mounts for secure-by-design connected and autonomous vehicle innovation QNX, a division of BlackBerry Limited <www.blackberry.com/us/en/> , has achieved certification of compliance to the ISO 21434 standard for automotive cybersecurity. This certification by TÜV Rheinland confirms the company’s ongoing commitment to support global automakers in prioritising security in increasingly connected next generation vehicles.
Compliance with this global cybersecurity standard means that QNX® development processes adhere to stringent security requirements, including rigorous testing and validation at every stage of the product lifecycle, from development, to production, to maintenance of vehicles in the field. By meeting these standards, QNX not only underscores its commitment to cybersecurity but also positions itself as a leader in developing secure, reliable, and resilient automotive foundational software for systems like advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), digital cockpits, automotive audio, gateways, zonal and domain controllers, telematics, and diagnostic systems.

Grant Courville, VP products and strategy, QNX said: “In the new era of connected and software-defined vehicles, security throughout the vehicle lifecycle is more important than ever. Certification to ISO 21434 is a significant achievement and allows our customers to leverage our Cybersecurity Management System to augment the security of their QNX-based automotive systems and comply with WP.29 UN Regulation R155. It’s further testimony to the rigor of QNX processes that help enable security and safety throughout the lifecycle of QNX-based systems in an increasingly connected and vulnerable digital landscape.”
The cybersecurity challenge facing the automotive industry has never been greater and ISO 21434 provides a framework to enable that automotive systems are designed with cybersecurity in mind from the outset.
Because there is no safety without security, ISO 21434 shares complementary goals with ISO 26262, the functional safety standard for the development of electrical and electronic systems in road vehicles. The two standards emphasise the importance of integrating their respective criteria into the overall engineering process, and both cover the lifecycle of a product from concept to maintenance to decommissioning.
By achieving ISO 21434 certification, QNX adds a new layer of protection for automakers, building on existing ISO 26262 ASIL D certification for QNX® OS for Safety and QNX® Hypervisor for Safety, and reinforces its dedication to maintaining both stringent security and safety standards throughout the product lifecycle.
