Recently, Flyme Auto, the intelligent cockpit system under XingJi Meizu Group, successfully passed the rigorous audit by the British Standards Institution (BSI) and was awarded the ISO/SAE 21434 automotive cybersecurity certification. This certification signifies that Flyme Auto's cybersecurity measures meet international standards throughout its entire lifecycle.
With the emergence of various smart connected and autonomous vehicles, features like vehicle connectivity, maintenance, and traffic safety information sharing have become increasingly common. However, this also raises the potential for diverse hacking attempts on vehicles, introducing new risks to automotive cybersecurity. The industry needs specific standards to address these cybersecurity challenges.
The ISO/SAE 21434 standard is the first international standard designed to tackle cybersecurity issues in the automotive sector. It outlines management requirements for cybersecurity risks throughout a vehicle's entire lifecycle—covering concepts, development, production, operation, maintenance, and disposal. This standard provides a framework for the engineering development and management processes related to cybersecurity, allowing manufacturers and suppliers to communicate using a universally accepted "standard language." Additionally, based on the "V-model," it encompasses all relevant fields and core development activities related to automotive electronics research and manufacturing, offering valuable support and guidance for OEMs, automotive supply chain companies, and device integrators in addressing information security challenges.
Flyme Auto, developed by XingJi Meizu Group, is an intelligent cockpit system that integrates smartphones into vehicles, equating smartphone upgrades with vehicle system enhancements. Flyme Auto aims to provide a seamless, intelligent, interconnected, and ecologically rich smart cockpit solution for global brands, creating a multi-terminal, all-scenario, immersive experience for users. For instance, while traditional vehicle systems may require drivers to pick up their phones for tasks like answering WeChat calls or sending navigation addresses to the vehicle's map, Flyme Auto enables the vehicle to access all the capabilities of the user's smartphone as soon as they enter the driver's seat, effectively turning the smartphone into the user's personal information hub.
To ensure the cybersecurity performance and reliability of Flyme Auto, XingJi Meizu Group has established a dedicated project team to conduct a comprehensive cybersecurity risk assessment and improvement process. Following the ISO/SAE 21434 standard, the group has implemented a robust cybersecurity management system, which underwent rigorous certification testing by BSI. As a result, XingJi Meizu Group has successfully obtained certification for compliance with the ISO/SAE 21434 standard.
The automotive industry is currently facing new risks and challenges related to cybersecurity, making the production and design of secure and reliable smart connected vehicles a key focus. XingJi Meizu Group emphasizes its strong commitment to personal information and data security, having already achieved ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO/IEC 27701 international standard certifications. The recent ISO/SAE 21434 certification is a significant affirmation of Flyme Auto's cybersecurity capabilities and a testament to the group's cybersecurity management proficiency.
XingJi Meizu Group remains dedicated to a user-centered approach, driven by technology and innovation. The group will continue to enhance the product quality and service standards of the Flyme Auto intelligent cockpit system, providing users with a more comfortable, intelligent, and safe driving experience.
