CyberSecurity 2 days (14h)

Embedded Systems Cybersecurity

Secure embedded systems: threats, standards and Secure-by-Design techniques to reduce risk.

Course Description

This embedded systems cybersecurity training gives developers a practical foundation for building and hardening secure connected embedded devices against realistic threats.

What the embedded systems cybersecurity training covers

The course covers threat modelling and attack surfaces for embedded systems, the secure development lifecycle, cryptography basics and key management, secure boot and firmware update, hardware roots of trust and secure elements, secure coding practices, and how these map to standards such as IEC 62443 and regulations such as the Cyber Resilience Act.

Who should attend

Embedded software and hardware engineers, product security and quality staff, and technical leads responsible for secure connected products.

What you will learn

By the end, participants can build a threat model, apply secure boot and update mechanisms, use cryptography correctly, and write more resilient embedded code.

Format and delivery

This course is delivered on-site or remotely by ISIT engineers and can be tailored to your team’s protocols, standards and experience level. Contact us to build a programme around your project.
