Cohort 2 – starts Monday 2 November 2026. A live, practitioner-led, hands-on cohort that takes you from automotive cybersecurity standards to working implementation: cryptography in C, HSM and secure boot, AUTOSAR security configuration, a full TARA and audit-ready evidence.

UN R155/R156 already apply to new vehicle types in many markets, and India’s AIS-189 cybersecurity roll-out is in draft. OEMs and Tier-1s need engineers who can implement ISO/SAE 21434, TARA and CSMS, not only describe them. Every pillar here comes with a guided lab in our hosted lab (labs.micromotiv.com, runs in your browser), so you finish with code, configurations and work products you built yourself.

Schedule and terms

• Starts: Monday 2 November 2026. Enrolment closes Sunday 1 November, 11:59 PM IST.

Six pillars, one lab each

• Week 1 – Foundations, threats & your lab bench. CIAAA, attack trees, the standards landscape, CAN injection and remote attacks. Lab: attack a virtual CAN bus.
• Week 2 – Applied cryptography for embedded engineers. AES modes, SHA-2, CMAC/HMAC, RSA/ECC signatures, key management. Lab: AES encrypt/decrypt, CMAC and signature verification in C with Mbed TLS.
• Week 3 – HSM, secure boot & the chain of trust. SHE/EVITA-class HSMs, secure boot, secure flashing (R156), UDS 0x27/0x29. Lab: build a secure-boot check and break a weak seed-key.
• Week 4 – Security in AUTOSAR Classic & Adaptive. CSM, CryIf, Crypto Driver, SecOC, KeyM; ara::crypto, IAM, IDS. Lab: protect a PDU with SecOC and defeat the replay attack.
• Week 5 – ISO/SAE 21434, CSMS & TARA end to end. Work products, R155/R156, interface agreements, post-development. Lab: run a complete TARA on a connected ECU.
• Week 6 – Vehicle regulations, homologation & audit readiness. AIS-189/190, CMVR, ARAI, ICAT, UNECE, FMVSS, GTRs, type approval. Lab: mock R155/AIS-189 audit, capstone and certification practice exam.

Certification pathway

The syllabus and practice exam are mapped to the knowledge areas of the Automotive Cybersecurity Professional (ACP, certified by TÜV Rheinland), the SAE International / TÜV SÜD Automotive Cybersecurity Certification (Level One / Two) and TÜV SÜD’s Certified Automotive Cybersecurity Practitioner (CACSP). Micromotiv is independent of these bodies; exam registration and fees are handled directly with them.
