We are currently in the midst of the certification process in accordance with IEC 62443-4-1 in collaboration with Bureau Veritas Cybersecurity, and expect to successfully complete it shortly. This important step strengthens our position as a reliable partner for secure industrial automation and communication solutions and underlines our high quality standards.
IEC 62443-4-1 is an internationally recognised standard for the development of secure industrial products. It defines requirements for a secure development process across the entire product lifecycle – from planning and development through to maintenance and continuous improvement. The aim is to systematically integrate cybersecurity into all development processes right from the start.
At FELA, we consistently follow the “Alignment beyond Compliance” approach. This means that we do not merely meet the requirements of the standard, but regard cybersecurity as an integral part of our corporate culture and our development processes. For us, security is not an additional step at the end of a project, but a fundamental component of every phase of product development.
This brings numerous benefits for our customers:
✅ Tested and traceable security processes throughout the entire product lifecycle.
✅ Greater system security through structured risk analyses and professional vulnerability management.
✅ Greater transparency and trust in the development of safety-critical products and solutions.
✅ Long-term investment security through compliance with internationally recognised security standards.
By pursuing IEC 62443-4-1 certification, FELA underlines its commitment not only to embodying leadership in technology, quality and security, but also to being able to demonstrate this independently. Security of industrial systems is becoming increasingly important, particularly in times of growing cyber threats.
As one of the few companies in Switzerland actively implementing this demanding standard, we are sending a strong signal of innovation, reliability and sustainability. Our customers benefit from a partner that meets the highest standards of quality, cybersecurity and sustainable product development, thereby making an important contribution to the secure digitalisation of industry.
