CXO’s Handbook: Safety Standards and Best Practices for Automotive Electronic Control Systems

Executive Summary

Automotive systems have evolved far beyond engines and wheels. Today, almost every function inside a vehicle depends on software and electronics. Before this transition, regulations mainly focused on passive safety measures such as seatbelts and crumple zones. The integration of electrical and electronic systems into vehicles led to the emergence of various regulatory standards.

A report published by Mordor Intelligence suggests the market size of the automotive safety systems is set to reach $210 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 8.45%. This rise is driven by growing regulatory emphasis on vehicle safety, increasing consumer awareness of safety features, advancements in safety technologies, and the rise of software-defined vehicles that allow over-the-air (OTA) upgrades.

With the integration of technologies such as AI/ML, the future is moving toward adaptive intelligent safety systems based on driving patterns and environmental conditions. As time progresses, the regulations and standards will work as a strategic advantage for OEMs and suppliers to gain early access to markets across geographies and gain consumer trust.

This handbook compiles the safety standards and best practices in the automotive industry. It explains various standards such as ISO 26262 for functional safety, ISO/SAE 21434 for cybersecurity, and how global regulations like UN R155/R156 and the EU Cyber Resilience Act are changing the way OEMs and Tier-1s operate. It also touches on software frameworks such as ASPICE, AUTOSAR, and MISRA C. Along with the technical angle, the eBook throws light on what these developments mean for business leaders trying to balance reliability, cost, and speed to market. It also consists of a self-assessment to evaluate the maturity of your compliance program.

For CXOs, the value lies in perspective. This is not just a technical compliance guide; it is a lens to see how engineering decisions affect revenue, customer trust, and competitive positioning. Leaders will discover how to connect safety and cybersecurity investments directly to business outcomes, something many strategies still overlook.
