CSMS evidence for UNECE R155 readiness

Connect Cybersecurity Management System governance to the engineering evidence chain — Cybersecurity Case work products, supplier evidence, and UNECE R155 readiness.

WHO THIS PAGE IS FOR

This page is for OEM cybersecurity leads, CSMS owners, and programme managers responsible for Cybersecurity Management System evidence and UNECE R155 readiness.

THE PROBLEM

UNECE R155 requires OEMs to operate a documented, audited Cybersecurity Management System and to demonstrate that cybersecurity is engineered into the vehicle. The CSMS is governance; the evidence is engineering. When the two are managed separately, the evidence is reconstructed under audit pressure instead of generated during engineering.

WHERE THE MANUAL WORKFLOW STRUGGLES

Why spreadsheets stop scaling

  • Audit dates land before the documentation chain is fully assembled

  • Governance documents and engineering work products live in different systems and drift apart

  • Supplier-side evidence is fragmented across spreadsheets and document handoffs

  • Annex 5 threat coverage is interpreted differently across teams

  • Translating engineering work into assessment-authority language happens late and by hand

HOW AGNILE AND KAVACH HELP

An engineering workflow designed to support this

  • KAVACH structures engineering evidence so it maps to CSMS and UNECE R155 evidence expectations

  • Cybersecurity case assembly draws on evidence generated across the cybersecurity lifecycle

  • Cybersecurity Interface Agreement workflows keep OEM and supplier evidence connected

  • A curated automotive Threat Database supports consistent Annex 5 threat coverage

  • Agnile engineering services support CSMS readiness reviews and pre-assessment gap analysis

REQUIRED INPUTS

  • CSMS process documentation and governance scope
  • Programme architecture and asset scope
  • Supplier scope and Interface Agreement context

EXPECTED OUTPUTS

  • CSMS-aligned engineering work-product evidence
  • Cybersecurity Case structured for review
  • Cybersecurity Interface Agreement records
  • Readiness gap analysis against UNECE R155 expectations

Actual programme outputs depend on scope, architecture, and the engineering review process.
