Innodisk Achieves IEC 62443-4-1 Certification to Standardize Secure Development for Edge AI and Industrial Solutions

Innodisk Corp., a global provider in edge AI and industrial-grade storage solutions, announced that it has officially obtained IEC 62443-4-1 certification for its security development lifecycle (SDL).

This achievement reinforces the company’s capability to deliver comprehensive security assurance across its product portfolio and product lifecycles, meeting the cybersecurity expectations of global supply chain partners and proactively aligning with upcoming international regulatory requirements such as the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA).

IEC 62443-4-1 is a critical standard for securing industrial control systems and critical infrastructure. Unlike product-specific testing, the standard focuses on establishing robust and repeatable secure development processes. Innodisk’s process-level certification spans its full range of offerings, including memory modules, flash storage, edge AI systems, embedded camera modules, firmware, SDKs, and cloud management tools. All products are now developed under standardized procedures covering secure design, threat modeling, vulnerability management, and long-term maintenance, ensuring consistent and reliable protection across every product line and at every lifecycle stage.

The EU CRA has become a defining benchmark for global product cybersecurity standards and is expected to significantly reshape the IoT and edge device landscape. The regulation places explicit responsibility on manufacturers to ensure ongoing vulnerability disclosure, maintenance, and security updates throughout a product’s operational lifetime. The SDL framework required by IEC 62443-4-1 is closely aligned with these obligations, emphasizing security from design and development through deployment and after-sales technical support. By adopting this standard ahead of full CRA enforcement, Innodisk has strengthened its internal security governance and established a standardized framework for secure firmware and software maintenance, further enhancing the reliability of its edge AI solutions.

“As AI adoption accelerates across manufacturing, transportation, healthcare, and smart-city environments, the cybersecurity of edge devices has become a shared challenge across the global ecosystem,” said Yichuan Chen, senior manager, quality assurance, Innodisk. “Achieving IEC 62443-4-1 certification reinforces Innodisk’s role as a trusted supply chain partner and enables our customers to more easily meet international procurement requirements, ultimately helping accelerate AI adoption and infrastructure modernization worldwide.”

Looking forward, the company will continue to further strengthen its secure development practices and work closely with global ecosystem partners to build a trusted foundation for next-gen edge AI and industrial computing.
