Latest cybersecurity research and technologies

Hikvision has long been dedicated to building a comprehensive secure development system

Hikvision has long been dedicated to building a comprehensive secure development system, the Hikvision Secure Development Life Cycle (HSDLC), covering every stage from requirement analysis, design, development, and testing to product delivery.

The HSDLC not only meets security standards but also incorporates the latest cybersecurity research and technologies, ensuring that Hikvision products maintain robust security defences against increasingly sophisticated cyber threats.

Development of the HSDLC system

Looking ahead, Hikvision will continue to strengthen the development of the HSDLC system, promoting security management throughout the entire product lifecycle, enhancing R&D capabilities, and better serving global markets.

Hikvision will also actively explore collaborations with other industry-pioneering enterprises to promote best practices across the industry chain and jointly address evolving cybersecurity challenges.

What is IEC 62443-4-1?

IEC 62443-4-1 is an important standard developed by the IEC for cybersecurity

IEC 62443-4-1 is an important standard developed by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) for the cybersecurity of industrial automation and control systems.

It helps organisations ensure that industrial control systems are secure throughout their design, deployment, and operation phases, safeguarding against risks such as cyberattacks, data breaches, and system failures while providing protection across the entire product lifecycle.

Practices and guidelines of IEC 62443-4-1

IEC 62443-4-1 provides a detailed and specific framework that addresses many key requirements of cybersecurity regulations, such as the EU’s NIS2 Directive. 

By implementing the practices and guidelines of IEC 62443-4-1, organisations significantly improve their safety posture and effectively protect their industrial operations against cyber threats.
