What You’ll Learn
How do you keep connected safety-related systems both secure and safe in a rapidly evolving threat landscape?

As safety-critical systems, including robotics, physical AI, and industrial applications, extend beyond traditional boundaries through cloud connectivity, remote interfaces, and networked operations, cybersecurity has outgrown its role as a purely IT concern. It is now a fundamental component of system safety. This webinar explores how cybersecurity and functional safety are becoming increasingly interconnected, and what that means for engineering, compliance, and risk management.

You will come away with a clearer understanding of how cyber threats can directly impact safety-critical functions, why regulatory frameworks are shifting, and how to integrate both security and safety requirements early in the design lifecycle. Addressing these issues early is the difference between building in resilience and facing costly redesigns, compliance delays, or reputational risk down the line.

What This Webinar Covers
The session explores the intersection of cybersecurity and functional safety, focusing on practical challenges and actionable strategies for connected safety-related systems. Key topics include:

• Cybersecurity for connected safety-related systems: Understanding the expanding attack surface in networked systems, and what it means for product design, lifecycle management, and risk exposure.
• Functional safety and cybersecurity convergence: How two traditionally separate disciplines are becoming increasingly interdependent, and why integrated approaches are now essential for overall system integrity.
• Cyber ​​threats as safety risks: Examining how malicious attacks on network-accessible systems can create hazardous situations, and why threat analysis must be part of the safety analysis.
• CRA compliance challenges: An overview of emerging regulatory expectations under the Cyber ​​Resilience Act (CRA), and the practical implications for manufacturers and engineering teams.
• Practical steps towards readiness: Concrete guidance on aligning development processes, strengthening cross-functional collaboration, and embedding safety and security considerations early to reduce redesign risk and compliance exposure.

Who Should Attend
Closing the gap between cybersecurity and functional safety requires collaboration across disciplines. Professionals involved in the development, validation, or governance of safety-critical internet-connected or remotely accessible products will find this session directly relevant, including:

• System engineers and solution architects
• Functional safety engineers
• Cybersecurity specialists and product security leads
• Engineering managers and technical decision-makers
• Compliance, quality, and regulatory professionals

This webinar is especially valuable for organizations developing or deploying robotics, physical AI, or other safety-critical systems where remote access or network connectivity could introduce risks with potential safety impacts. Whether you are early in your development lifecycle or working towards regulatory compliance, you will leave with the insights to build a stronger, more resilient approach.
