Secure Product Development Lifecycle

At Commend, we have always known when it comes to Cyber Security, there is no simple solution that covers all security needs. Regardless of the size of a Commend system and the underlying network infrastructure, Cyber Security is a cooperative effort that requires the collaboration of all stakeholders along the entire product supply chain, from the vendor to the end user.

The successful certification according to IEC 62443-4-1
underlines the importance of "Secure-by-Design"
as an integral part of Commend's product development.

It's not just about what tools to use or what actions to take, but what to use them for (or against) and when, how, and where to implement them. It's about identifying potential risks and targets, understanding threats, and taking action to counter them.

As part of our defense-in-depth strategy, cyber security is firmly embedded at Commend and we sustainably support our customers' security strategies. To not only claim this, but also prove it to an independent auditor, we decided to certify to IEC 62443 Part 4-1.

This certification by the globally recognized Cyber Security certification service provider TÜV SÜD confirms that our development teams can develop and implement secure communication and automation solutions in accordance with the IEC 62443-4-1 standard and that our "Security by Design" guidelines meet the high requirements for secure automation solutions for Industry 4.0!
