Munich, Germany – 6 May 2026 – Intellias, a global partner for AI-enabled product engineering and digital solutions, has expanded the scope of its certified Cybersecurity Management System (CSMS) to include three additional engineering locations: Cairo, Munich, and Wolfsburg. Following an audit by TÜV NORD, this extension was certified against ISO/SAE 21434:2021, the international standard for automotive cybersecurity engineering. The certification now encompasses all seven principal Intellias mobility engineering centers: Porto, Ingolstadt, Munich, Wolfsburg, Krakow, Lviv, and Cairo.
In the era of Software-Defined Vehicles, ISO/SAE 21434:2021 has become a baseline expectation for suppliers working on cybersecurity-relevant systems. The standard enables compliance with the UNECE WP.29 regulation on vehicle cybersecurity, mandatory for type-approved vehicles across the European Union, Japan, and South Korea. For OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers, a certified partner means cybersecurity processes are documented, auditable, and consistent
Cybersecurity is a strict regulatory requirement, raising the bar for what suppliers must demonstrate. ISO/SAE 21434:2021 sets high standards for the entire vehicle lifecycle, and our audit confirmed that Intellias maintains these requirements across their engineering centers.
With this extension, engineers working on mobility projects at Intellias – regardless of location – operate within the same certified framework. This unified approach integrates cybersecurity risk management at organizational and project-level across each phase of software development lifecycle.
Standardizing CSMS across engineering locations ensures consistency for our partners. Whether in Ingolstadt, Lviv, or Cairo, every Intellias team follows the exact same certified protocols. This means that no matter which mobility center a partner chooses, they operate within a rigorously audited framework.
The ISO/SAE 21434 certification complements the existing TISAX Assessment Level 3 certifications across Intellias locations in Porto, Ingolstadt, Munich, Krakow, and Cairo. Combined, these standards ensure the secure handling of sensitive engineering assets and prototypes, while maintaining the cybersecurity integrity of the software development lifecycle.
