Safe open-source software (DE0806)

Short Description:
Currently, ISO 26262 does not provide requirements for reusing (qualifying) preexisting complex software elements. Even if there is a new standard, ISO PAS 8926, that builds on top of ISO 26262 and provides some regulatory guidance, this standard does not provide any clear solutions.
To close this gap, this training will provide you with clear guidance on how to qualify complex pre-existing software that was not developed in accordance with safety standards.
The training applies both to open-source and closed-source software.
It is based on several standards, in particular with the current ISO PAS 8926 and ISO 26262.
General approach:
The exida approach is to explain key issues and correspondingly propose a working solution both at the process level (e.g., how to structure the development, what work products are needed, how to achieve an assessment or certification) and at the technical level (e.g., how to perform a safety analysis, how to derive necessary safety mechanisms or safety measures, how to define KPIs or apply statistical methods).
The main focus of this training is on the safety reengineering of the software – so how to, at the technical level, correctly the software architecture/design/implementation by applying necessary changes like adding safety mechanisms based on safety analysis. But the training will cover all activities, from defining the overall qualification strategy to the safety case.
