Innodisk has announced that it has officially obtained IEC 62443-4-1 certification for its security development lifecycle (SDL).
The company says that this achievement reinforces its capability to deliver comprehensive security assurance across its product portfolio and product lifecycles, meeting the cybersecurity expectations of global supply chain partners and proactively aligning with upcoming international regulatory requirements such as the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA).
IEC 62443-4-1 certification
IEC 62443-4-1 is a critical standard for securing industrial control systems and critical infrastructure. Unlike product-specific testing, the standard focuses on establishing robust and repeatable secure development processes.
Innodisk’s process-level certification spans its full range of offerings, including memory modules, flash storage, edge AI systems, embedded camera modules, firmware, SDKs and cloud management tools.
All products are now developed under standardised procedures covering secure design, threat modelling, vulnerability management and long-term maintenance, ensuring consistent and reliable protection across every product line and at every lifecycle stage.
The EU CRA has become a defining benchmark for global product cybersecurity standards and is expected to significantly reshape the IoT and edge device landscape.
The regulation places explicit responsibility on manufacturers to ensure ongoing vulnerability disclosure, maintenance and security updates throughout a product’s operational lifetime.
The SDL framework required by IEC 62443-4-1 is closely aligned with these obligations, emphasising security from design and development through deployment and after-sales technical support.
By adopting this standard ahead of full CRA enforcement, Innodisk has strengthened its internal security governance and established a standardised framework for secure firmware and software maintenance, further enhancing the reliability of its edge AI solutions.
“Easily meet international procurement requirements”
Yichuan Chen, Senior Manager of Quality Assurance at Innodisk commented: “As AI adoption accelerates across manufacturing, transportation, healthcare and smart-city environments, the cybersecurity of edge devices has become a shared challenge across the global ecosystem.
“Achieving IEC 62443-4-1 certification reinforces Innodisk’s role as a trusted supply chain partner and enables our customers to more easily meet international procurement requirements, ultimately helping accelerate AI adoption and infrastructure modernisation worldwide.”
Looking ahead with Innodisk
Looking forward, Innodisk highlights that it will continue to further strengthen its secure development practices and work closely with global ecosystem partners to build a trusted foundation for next-generation edge AI and industrial computing.
