This will enable the Group to propose complete end-to-end solutions integrated into the vehicle, securing software, data and cloud connectivity.
In addition to securing its solutions, Faurecia has also been working to globally assess and protect its network of industrial sites and offices from cyber-security risks.
As of today, 60 dedicated cyber-security experts are working to prevent, detect and control cybersecurity issues.
“The Israeli ecosystem is leading innovation and the development of solutions in cyber-security,” said Faurecia CEO, Patrick Koller.

As well as expanding its global community of software engineers, designers and systems architects, the new technology platform will bring Faurecia new skills through penetration testing experts to analyse potential vulnerabilities across multiple coding languages and protocols.
Furthermore, last May, Faurecia also realised an investment in GuardKnox, an automotive cyber-security startup, identified through its Tel Aviv technology platform.
The other Group’s technology platforms are located in the Silicon Valley, Toronto and Shenzen.
