ISO 21434 Tool for TARA and Cybersecurity Traceability
ISO/SAE 21434 introduces cybersecurity engineering expectations for road-vehicle systems, including asset identification, threat scenarios, attack paths, risk determination, cybersecurity goals, requirements, controls, and evidence. TARA work is hard to govern when analysis, decisions, and follow-on controls are scattered.
Aegis SafeForge helps teams manage TARA and cybersecurity engineering workflows alongside functional safety work, giving reviewers clearer traceability from assets and threats to goals, requirements, controls, claims, and evidence.
Domain challenge
The ISO 21434 workflow challenge
Cybersecurity risk work must connect assets, damage scenarios, threat scenarios, attack feasibility, impact, goals, requirements, and controls in a way that remains reviewable as the program changes.

Frequently asked questions
What is ISO/SAE 21434?
ISO/SAE 21434 is a road-vehicle cybersecurity engineering standard for managing cybersecurity risk across the lifecycle.
What is TARA?
TARA stands for threat analysis and risk assessment. It identifies assets, threats, attack paths, risks, and cybersecurity objectives.
Can SafeForge support ISO 26262 and ISO 21434 together?
Yes. SafeForge is designed for safety and cybersecurity workflows that share project context, review control, and traceability.
Does SafeForge automate cybersecurity decisions?
No. It assists with drafting and structuring, while cybersecurity engineers review and approve risk decisions.
Why does TARA need traceability?
Traceability links threats and risks to goals, requirements, controls, validation evidence, and review decisions so the cybersecurity case is easier to defend.
