Partnership with global automotive platform announced

C2A’s entry marks the first and only time an Israeli startup has partnered with the alliance, and positions C2A Security as a cyber security contributor to the consortium. As a Development Partner, C2A will collaborate with all partners to define cyber security infrastructure for security sensors and modules, ultimately working toward new AUTOSAR standards for improved vehicle performance, safety and, with the addition of C2A’s expertise, vehicle cyber security. 

Since 2003, the AUTOSAR consortium of Core, Premium and Development partners has increased the exchangeability of software modules across all vehicle platforms and opened the industry standard for highly integrated complex E/E architectures. 

“AUTOSAR and C2A’s missions are in alignment: both promote visibility, standardisation and market neutrality with the aim of making vehicles of today and tomorrow safer,” said C2A Chief Product and Marketing Officer Nathaniel Meron.

“With automotive software and networks becoming more complex and interconnected by the day, C2A is honored to contribute to the development of a cyber secure ecosystem in collaboration with our AUTOSAR colleagues.” 

The Development Partnership will grant C2A Security the right to use AUTOSAR technology and access to related Intellectual Property (IP) of other AUTOSAR partners, which will enable C2A to take further steps in the development of their cyber security products and cyber security life cycle management platform. 

All C2A solutions are easily integrated into existing AUTOSAR projects with Core, Premium and Development Partners and will follow the AUTOSAR methodology. C2A will contribute to the quality and safety level of AUTOSAR software and E/E architecture with its embedded cybersecurity solutions.
