As cybersecurity regulations tighten across the automotive industry, OEMs and suppliers are under growing pressure to not only build secure vehicles but also prove compliance across their entire software and hardware stack.

In this episode of Cars, Hackers, and Cyber Security, we explore the key strategies for mastering compliance with global automotive cybersecurity standards such as UN R155 and ISO/SAE 21434. We explore the tools, processes, and organizational shifts needed to manage complex supplier ecosystems, validate software origins, and mitigate risks before they become liabilities.

Learn how automakers are integrating threat analysis, software bill of materials (SBOM) scanning, and third-party audits into their development lifecycles. Hear how compliance is evolving from a checkbox to a continuous, proactive discipline-and why this shift is critical for future-proofing both innovation and regulation.
