Attack tree Analysis: Qualitative and Quantitative Threat Modelling
David Wiseman (Customer Training & Support, Isograph Inc.) (EN->DE)

In the last 50 years motor vehicles have become increasingly dependent upon electronic control units (ECUs). The growing interconnectivity of these ECUs has opened up onboard systems to potential interference from bad actors. Attack trees are a powerful tool for identifying paths of attack and determining the likelihood and risk of the threat to a system. This presentation will explore the history, applications, and methodology of attack tree analysis. Examples will be presented using Isograph’s AttackTree 5.0 software solution.

Implementing Quality Center APQP at Witzenmann
Nadine Hanakam (Project Engineer, Witzenmann) (DE->EN)

The Witzenmann Group has about 4300 employees within 22 subsidiaries and 6 market divisions and produces flexible metallic elements with a wide range of diversification for many different markets and customer requirements. Decentralisation and transformation increase the need collaboration in customer projects across all divisions, which made a harmonisation of processes and software necessary. Implementing Quality Center APQP as the new software for projects & project controlling entailed challenges – especially regarding acceptance of the users. Some functions achieved the status “essential and appreciated” within our improvement process. We look forward to the further development.

Inalfa Roof System's FMEA Journey
Mert Tascioglu (Engineering Manager – Advanced Engineering Std. Parts Team, Inalfa Roof Systems BV) (EN->DE)

Inalfa Roof Systems is a global automotive roof system Tier1 supplier to all premium OEMs. Headquartered in Venray NL, Inalfa has more than 5000 employees in 15 locations worldwide, including 5 engineering offices, manufacturing more than 6 million roofs every year.

FMEA has always been at the core of engineering at Inalfa. Release of the new FMEA guideline by AIAG&VDA was seen as an opportunity to improve the quality of the process within the organization. Main focus areas were:

• Adapting FMEA process to AIAG & VDA FMEA Handbook (2019)
• Use of dedicated software, with the ability to link P/DFMEA and Control Plan in a structured manner
• Lessons learned transfer to all projects via use of templates (Base FMEA's)
• Meet OEM Requirements for FMEA Process

Risk analysis methods in medical technology - a field report
Carolin Schulz & Oliver Mannuß (Fraunhofer-Institut für Produktionstechnik und Automatisierung IPA) (DE)

We will show you a way to implement holistic risk management by systematically identifying and assessing application risks and technical risks. Using practical examples, we classify risk types in the development process and explain the aim and purpose of the corresponding analysis method:

• Gefährdungs- und Risikobeurteilung Hazard and risk assessment
• Technical risk analyses:
  • Design FMEA
  • Process FMEA
  • Functional Safety (FuSa)
  • Analysis of security-relevant cyber risks
    

We present possible links between the methods that ensure traceability and consistency in holistic risk management.
