The increasing connectivity means devices must also be secure. Providing justification for the safety of an unsecure connected device will be extremely difficult, as potential attacks via the network connection can directly impact the safety functions. This means that both safety and security standards have to be considered for next generation designs.
This whitepaper explores some of the key industries with safety and security concerns, introduces some applicable functional safety and security standards and discusses how the ARM architecture and ecosystem supports functional safety and security applications.
