• Certified both ISO/SAE 21434 and ENX Vehicle Cyber Security (VCS) label, demonstrating its automotive cybersecurity management capabilities
• Establishes a cybersecurity management system for automotive products, with dedicated cybersecurity personnel and processes to address potential security risks
• Aims to strengthen competitiveness by delivering OLED products that meet the stringent security standards required by automotive manufacturers and consumers
SEOUL, November 10, 2026 – Samsung Display announced today that the company has earned two automotive cybersecurity certifications, ISO/SAE 21434 and ENX VCS, for the first time in the industry. Samsung Display has established a systematic framework for managing security risks amid growing cyber threats in the automotive industry.
The certification ceremony was held on November 10 at Samsung Display Research in Yongin, South Korea. Kyung-jin Yoo, Executive Vice President and Head of the Mobile Display Product Development Team at Samsung Display, and Ingo M. Rübenach, CEO of DQS Group, a global specialist in the assessment and certification of management systems, attended the ceremony.
ISO/SAE 21434 is an international standard designed to systematically manage cybersecurity risks throughout the entire vehicle lifecycle, from design and development to disposal. Its importance has grown as cybersecurity regulations for automotive and digital products become increasingly stringent, particularly in Europe.
ENX VCS is an independent audit and assessment program established by the European Network Exchange (ENX) Association, a European automotive industry association established by European automotive manufacturers, suppliers, and industry associations to promote secure information exchange, based on ISO/SAE 21434. It evaluates how effectively automotive manufacturers and suppliers have established and implemented their cybersecurity management systems. The program is also gaining importance as it enables companies to objectively demonstrate the reliability of their cybersecurity management systems.
As Samsung Display expands its automotive OLED business, the company has established a cybersecurity management system for its automotive products. This includes dedicated cybersecurity personnel and a monitoring process to identify, analyze, and address potential risks, enabling the company to respond swiftly to changing market demands.
The company has also focused on strengthening product security by comprehensively identifying potential hacking vulnerabilities through the physical disassembly and inspection of automotive OLED modules and by incorporating security measures into product designs to address identified risks.
Ingo M. Rübenach, CEO of DQS Group, commented on the assessment results, saying, “The transition to software-defined vehicles changes what automotive manufacturers expect from their suppliers. Cybersecurity has to be part of how an organization develops products, takes decisions and responds to new risks. Through these assessments, Samsung Display has demonstrated a structured approach to these responsibilities. We expect Samsung Display’s technological competitiveness, combined with its proven cybersecurity reliability, to meet the demands of global automakers and further strengthen its competitiveness in the next-generation mobility market.”
“In the era of SDVs, cybersecurity has become a critical factor underpinning product competitiveness,” said Kyung-jin Yoo, Executive Vice President and Head of the Mobile Display Product Development Team at Samsung Display. He added “We will further solidify our display leadership in the mobility market by delivering OLED products that meet the stringent security standards required by automakers and consumers.”
