Samsung's OLED screens for connected cars are safer from hacking

Samsung Display announced that its OLED panels and related components for connected cars have received two key automotive cybersecurity certifications simultaneously: ISO/SAE 21434 and ENX Vehicle Cyber Security (VCS).

As modern vehicles adopt more connected technologies, remote monitoring, and autonomous driving features, protecting them against cyberattacks has become critical. Samsung Display is addressing this by ensuring that the OLED screens and modules it manufactures are hardened against potential intrusions.

The ISO/SAE 21434 certification is awarded to products designed and engineered for cybersecurity throughout their entire lifecycle, from development and manufacturing to maintenance and disposal.

Meanwhile, the ENX VCS label comes from an independent audit and evaluation program established by the European Network Exchange (ENX) Association, which is a group of European car makers ((like BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen Group), suppliers, and industry associations), suppliers and industry associations. Based on the ISO/SAE 21434 standard, it verifies whether automotive suppliers have implemented effective cybersecurity management systems.

By securing both certifications after an independent audit by DQS Group, Samsung Display aims to strengthen its position as the leading automotive OLED supplier capable of meeting the rigorous security demands of global automakers.
