What if a car crash is caused by a bug in the software?
What if a car crash is caused by a bug in the software?
Vehicle digitalization is advancing rapidly. Today’s vehicle cockpit is a digital screen signaling information to the driver. Malfunctioning software can cause injuries or deaths. Rightware and Tieto joined forces to increase driving safety by diminishing the probability of bugs in vehicle software through ISO 26262 compliance.
The instrument cluster in the vehicle cockpit has undergone a major digitalization shift. As a byproduct, safety-critical information is no longer signaled to the driver via electric LED lamps but instead with graphical symbols on the digital screen: for example, the electronic parking brake tell-tale and the gear lever indicator (P/R/N/D) are such safety-critical information.
ISO 26262 Functional Safety Standard
The ISO 26262 standard has been recognized for years, although it has not yet been officially mandated by regulators. It is used by Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and other suppliers to limit their legal liability in traffic incidents where malfunctioning software or hardware in the vehicle is suspected.
However, ramping up ISO 26262 process capabilities in organizations can be very time-consuming. Also, delivering functional safety projects can be considerably costlier than delivering ordinary software projects. The cost factor is very much determined by the product complexity and the targeted Automotive Safety Integrity Level (ASIL).
How to foster safe user interfaces for cars?
Rightware enables rapid creation and deployment of user interfaces for cars with its Kanzi UI design software. When Rightware embarked on a project to introduce functional safety into their product, they turned to their longtime Kanzi Partner, Tieto. Tieto developed a new product, Kanzi Safety, which ensures that safety-critical information is always displayed correctly in the software-orchestrated environment.
Kanzi Safety is designed to fulfill automotive industry expectations in terms of managing and displaying the safety-critical information on-screen and validating what was rendered. It helps to design UI systems which are ISO 26262 compliant.
Kanzi Safety consists of two parts:
- Kanzi Studio plugin allows the designing and workflow management of safety-critical UIs in the same tool with the rest of the non-safety-critical UIs
- Kanzi Safety Runtime component is used in the actual operational vehicle environment. Under the definitions given in ISO 26262 it is an ASIL-B compliant Safety Element out of Context (SEooC)
Kanzi Safety Runtime introduces a middleware layer on top of the QNX Neutrino RTOS (ASIL-D) and QNX Graphics for Safety (ASIL-B), exposing a simple API for the application. The services include: loading and validating the configuration and UI designed and exported from Kanzi Studio, rendering safety-critical UI elements, and validating the rendered content.
Proven software development processes to automotive industry
When developing the Kanzi Safety product, Tieto ramped up a new software development process and tools for automotive software engineering purposes. This hybrid V-model and Agile Scrum process improves speed, transparency and cost-efficiency of development. TÜV Rheinland audited the process to ensure its compliance with ISO 26262.
“Establishing ISO 26262 compliant software development is laborious, but now that the work is done, we are powered to scale and help automotive industry companies in their software engineering challenges,” points out Project Manager Petteri Kolppo from Tieto Automotive business.
“Hopefully our hard work will benefit many others, so that they don’t need to put the same effort in becoming ISO 26262 compliant,” says Kolppo.
Tieto focuses on software R&D and consulting services for the automotive industry with a full service portfolio from software concept design to verification and system integration.

New Tieto Security Services to include Dell One Identity Solutions to enhance Cloud Services offering
New Tieto Security Services to include Dell One Identity Solutions to enhance Cloud Services offering
Tieto's new Security Services will include Dell One Identity Manager and Dell One Identity Cloud Access Manager in its world-wide ecosystem, enabling Tieto to provide customers with the latest technologies and solutions.
Today, organizations are challenged to keep up with the accelerating pace of change in information security. With increasing numbers of employees demanding remote access via both professional and personal devices to data and applications through the corporate network, IT teams face a multitude of complex tasks in ensuring employees can gain secure access to both internal and external web applications. Through the deployment of Identity and Access Management solutions, organisations are able to manage the authentication of users, ensuring that the right people are able to access, using single sign-on, the applications and data in different clouds as required by their roles.
"The importance of information security in the modern world has grown exponentially. That is why Tieto has founded an internal start-up to provide information security services. We work in active collaboration with market-leading solutions providers and are pleased to be able to bring Dell One Identity solutions into our ecosystem. Dell offers us something special in terms of identity management. We were looking for a modular system that we could easily integrate into our own service offering, right down to a pricing model that scales in accordance with usage. And so we were able to build a package on top of the Dell portfolio. Our package is highly adaptable to customers' varying requirements and it can be delivered quickly," says Markus Melin, Head of Tieto's Security Services start-up.
"The addition of cloud services represents a unique challenge to information security within an organization. Identity and access management plays a key role in modern organizations that are beginning to utilize cloud services by ensuring that access to on-premise and cloud-based data is secure and easy for all authorized employees to access, regardless of the device they are using. Tieto is a superb partner for us – they have a strong foothold in all of the Nordic countries and we approach the IT security development path in very much the same way," says Dell Finland's Software Sales Lead, Petri Ahveninen.

Ransomware and Cryptolocker
What you need to know - read the white paper.
Ransomware and Cryptolocker
Ransomware and Cryptolocker have had a crippling affect on a lot of companies since 2013, when they first appeared. Ransomware is malware, that locks the user’s assets, leaving them in an unusable state. The compromised user has to pay the attacker with a ransom to unlock the system and to get the files decrypted. Ransomware is still an active threat in 2016. New variants are released frequently, even provided as “ransomware-as-a-service”.
Last year, 60 % of all companies infected by ransomware had to raise a major incident to solve the case.
Read our white paper and learn how to defend your organisation.
