Taiwanese collaborative robot maker Techman Robot said its TM AI Cobot S series has been certified to IEC 62443-4-2 Security Level 2 after an independent assessment by DEKRA.
IEC 62443 is an international cybersecurity standard for industrial automation and control systems. Part 4-2 sets the technical security requirements that products and components in those systems must meet. The assessment covered user authentication and access control, protection of data and communications, system integrity and system availability.
Techman Robot said manufacturers, system integrators and end users can use the certification when judging whether the robots are secure enough for connected production lines. The company said it treats cybersecurity as part of the robot system as physical AI spreads in factories, and plans to widen the security checks of its cobots.
