## KAVACH Platform

KAVACH is Agnile's AI-assisted ISO/SAE 21434 workspace for automotive cybersecurity engineering, currently available in v1. It is a workspace, not a TARA-only tool — it supports ISO/SAE 21434 lifecycle evidence workflows across Clauses 5–15, helps teams structure ISO/SAE 21434 work-product evidence, and prepares evidence packages structured for cybersecurity assessment readiness against UNECE R155 expectations. TARA is one capability inside the workspace; KAVACH is being developed to support ISO/SAE 21434 lifecycle workflows across Clauses 5–15 with Model-Based Security Engineering, an AI-powered threat engine, and engineer-in-the-loop review at every stage.

### The Problem KAVACH Solves

**TARA cycles measured in weeks** — Threat enumeration, asset mapping, and risk scoring are still done by hand for most programmes. The work is rigorous; the workflow doesn’t scale across platforms.

**Lifecycle evidence, manual traceability** — ISO/SAE 21434 work-product evidence spans governance, concept, development, validation, production, operations, and TARA. When evidence lives across Word, Excel, and disconnected tools, traceability gaps often surface late during customer, assessor, or regulatory review.

**Generic threat modeling tools were not built for vehicles** — IT-grade tools don’t model ECU architectures, CAN/CAN-FD buses, automotive STRIDE, or ISO/SAE 21434 Clause 15 specifics. The gap shows up in threat scenarios you have to write yourself.

### Workflow

1. **Model** — Define your E/E architecture — ECUs, networks, trust boundaries, data flows — in KAVACH’s MBSE Architecture Canvas.
2. **Identify** — AI maps your architecture against thousands of curated automotive Threat Scenarios from EMB3D, AutoISAC, ASRG, and NVD.
3. **Assess** — Automated Impact and Attack Feasibility ratings aligned to ISO/SAE 21434 Clause 15. Consistent. Auditable.
4. **Mitigate** — Recommended security controls — encryption, authentication, monitoring — mapped to each identified risk.
5. **Validate** — Generate ISO/SAE 21434 work-product evidence supporting UNECE R155 readiness. Traceable, reviewable, and structured for audit review.

### Key Capabilities

- **MBSE Architecture Canvas** — Visually model vehicle E/E architectures with interactive diagrams. Define Items, Cybersecurity Properties, and Damage Scenarios with ISO-aligned metadata.
- **AI-Powered Threat Engine** — AI-powered retrieval across a curated automotive security corpus identifies relevant Threat Scenarios for your specific architecture.
- **Automated Risk Scoring** — Structured Impact and Attack Feasibility ratings per ISO/SAE 21434 Clause 15. No spreadsheet guesswork — consistent, traceable, defensible.
- **Lifecycle Evidence Workflows** — Support ISO/SAE 21434 work-product evidence workflows: TARA Reports, Risk Treatment Plans, Cybersecurity Goals, Claims, and Cybersecurity Case. Structured for review.
- **UNECE R155 Alignment** — Map TARA outputs to CSMS evidence. Prepare evidence packages structured for cybersecurity assessment readiness with full traceability.
- **Curated Threat Database** — Sourced from EMB3D, AutoISAC ATM, ASRG XSAM, NVD, GHSA, and Pwn2Own Automotive disclosures. Continuously updated.

### Scale

- A curated automotive Threat Database sourced from EMB3D, AutoISAC ATM, ASRG XSAM, NVD, GHSA, and Pwn2Own Automotive
- Retrieval-augmented AI over a curated automotive security corpus
- ISO/SAE 21434 work-product evidence workflows across Clauses 5–15
- Supports ISO/SAE 21434, UNECE R155 (CSMS), UNECE R156 (SUMS)

### Deployment Model

KAVACH deploys on-premise for teams with their own GPU infrastructure, or in a customer-dedicated cloud VPC in the EU for teams that prefer managed infrastructure. In both cases, architecture models and project data stay within the customer's defined boundary.

## Definitions

Self-contained reference paragraphs for the domain terms referenced throughout this site. Each paragraph is intended to be quotable without further context.

### TARA (Threat Analysis and Risk Assessment)

TARA is the systematic cybersecurity risk analysis methodology defined by ISO/SAE 21434 Clause 15. It identifies assets and their cybersecurity properties, enumerates damage and threat scenarios, derives attack paths, rates impact and attack feasibility, and produces risk treatment decisions. TARA outputs feed the cybersecurity goals and cybersecurity requirements that govern downstream development, production, and post-production activities across the vehicle lifecycle.

### ISO/SAE 21434 — Road vehicles: Cybersecurity engineering (2021)

ISO/SAE 21434 is the international standard specifying cybersecurity engineering requirements for road vehicles and their electrical and electronic systems. Across 15 clauses it covers the complete vehicle lifecycle — concept, product development, production, operation, maintenance, and decommissioning — and defines the processes, work products, and organisational capabilities required for cybersecurity engineering. Compliance with ISO/SAE 21434 is the most widely accepted evidence for demonstrating the process requirements of UNECE R155.

### UNECE R155 — Cybersecurity and Cyber Security Management System

UNECE Regulation No. 155 is a binding United Nations regulation requiring vehicle manufacturers seeking type approval to operate a certified Cybersecurity Management System (CSMS) and to demonstrate cybersecurity risk management at the vehicle type level. It entered into force in January 2021 and became mandatory in the European Union for all new vehicle types from July 2022 and for all new vehicles from July 2024. R155 applies in all UNECE 1958 Agreement member states, including Japan and South Korea.

### UNECE R156 — Software Update and Software Update Management System

UNECE Regulation No. 156 is the counterpart regulation to R155 covering software updates, including over-the-air (OTA / FOTA / SOTA) updates. It requires vehicle manufacturers to operate a certified Software Update Management System (SUMS) and to obtain type approval for each software-defined vehicle configuration through the RXSWIN (Regulation X Software Identification Number) mechanism. R156 entered into force alongside R155 and carries the same mandatory timelines in the European Union.

### ISO 26262 — Road vehicles: Functional safety (2018, second edition)

ISO 26262 is the international standard for functional safety of electrical and electronic systems in production road vehicles. Across 12 parts it defines a lifecycle-based approach to identifying, classifying, and mitigating hazards caused by malfunctioning behaviour of E/E systems. It is distinct from, and complementary to, ISO/SAE 21434, which addresses cybersecurity hazards. ISO 26262 introduces the Automotive Safety Integrity Level (ASIL) classification used throughout the automotive industry.

### ASIL — Automotive Safety Integrity Level

ASIL is the risk classification scheme defined by ISO 26262, assigning each identified hazardous event a level from A through D — plus QM (Quality Management) for events that do not warrant safety measures. The assignment is determined by the combination of severity, probability of exposure, and controllability of the hazard. ASIL D is the most stringent level and mandates the strictest requirements for requirement rigour, architectural metrics, verification coverage, and independence of safety assessment.

### AUTOSAR — AUTomotive Open System ARchitecture

AUTOSAR is a standardised software architecture for automotive ECUs maintained by the AUTOSAR development partnership, an industry consortium of OEMs, Tier-1 suppliers, semiconductor vendors, and tool suppliers. AUTOSAR Classic is a static, OSEK-based architecture designed for deeply embedded, safety-critical ECUs with fixed scheduling and deterministic execution. AUTOSAR Adaptive is a POSIX-based, service-oriented architecture introduced for high-performance computing platforms such as ADAS and autonomous driving domain controllers, where dynamic resource allocation, Ethernet-based communication, and service discovery are required.

### DO-178C — Software Considerations in Airborne Systems and Equipment Certification (RTCA / EUROCAE, 2011)

DO-178C is the primary aviation standard for the development and certification of airborne software, recognised by civil aviation regulators including the FAA and EASA. It classifies software by Design Assurance Level (DAL) from A (catastrophic failure condition) through E (no effect on safety), with progressively stricter objectives for requirements capture, design, verification, structural coverage (including MC/DC at DAL A), configuration management, and quality assurance. DO-178C is supplemented by DO-330 (tool qualification), DO-331 (model-based development), DO-332 (object-oriented technology), and DO-333 (formal methods).

### HSM — Hardware Security Module (automotive)

An automotive HSM is a dedicated hardware block within a microcontroller that provides isolated cryptographic processing, secure key storage, and a hardware root of trust for secure boot, secure flashing, secure diagnostics, and secure onboard communication. Automotive HSMs are most commonly classified by the EVITA Light, Medium, and Full profiles, which prescribe progressively stronger cryptographic capability, asymmetric algorithm support, and tamper resistance. The AUTOSAR Classic Crypto Stack (CryptoStack) and SHE / SHE+ interfaces are the standard software interfaces for invoking HSM services from application and basic software.

### SecOC — Secure Onboard Communication

SecOC is the AUTOSAR module that provides authenticity and integrity protection for selected in-vehicle communication on CAN, CAN-FD, FlexRay, and Automotive Ethernet. It appends a freshness value (typically a monotonic counter) and a truncated message authentication code — most commonly CMAC using AES-128 — to each protected PDU, allowing receiving ECUs to reject spoofed or replayed messages. SecOC protects integrity and authenticity only; the payload is not encrypted, which preserves bandwidth and determinism while enabling backward compatibility with unprotected receivers during rollout.
