Upcoming CRA, NIS2, and NISTIR 8259A compliance deadlines are forcing OEMs to prioritize secure silicon and hardware protections.

NEW YORK, Aug. 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — After a few sluggish years following COVID-19, the digital authentication and embedded security market is poised for double-digit growth in the coming years, according to global technology intelligence firm ABI Research. This is despite global tariff uncertainty that continues to impact the semiconductor industry.

“The relentless, onward march of E.U. regulations is not to be derailed by global pandemics or fickle administrations,” said Michela Menting, Senior Research Director. “The fast-approaching deadlines for the EU’s Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) are pushing device OEMs to pay close attention to the security of their product roadmaps. As a result, semiconductors and silicon IP providers are seeing increased interest in security hardware, with an expected boost to the market kicking off in the coming years.”

The fragmented and diverse range of IoT implementations, from mission-critical requirements in tightly regulated sectors to sectors where security was largely ignored, is propitious to the development of a broad variety of security offerings. Secure MCUs in particular are well suited to serve this varied range, with great flexibility and rich feature sets on offer from myriad vendors including Analog Devices, Infineon, Microchip, Nuvoton, NXP, Renesas, Silicon Labs, and STMicroelectronics, among others. More specific, high-assurance implementations with tamper-proof and security certification requirements (e.g. Common Criteria, FIPS 140-3, or even automotive-grade safety), can be served by secure elements and TPMs, from the large semiconductor providers, but also from smaller emergent and highly focused players such as SealSQ and TropicSquare.

As a result, industry specifications are quickly becoming de facto (and de jure) standards, notably SESIP, Matter and Qi wireless charging; they are quickly enjoying traction in the ways that IEC 62443 (for industrial) and ISO 21434 (for automotive) have in the past few years. OEMs are looking for the best ways to integrate some of these specifications and standards to help them meet the new regulatory compliance requirements of the CRA (as well as those of NIS2, and the U.S. NISTIR 8259A which is mandated for U.S. federal government use).

Embedded hardware security is not the be-all and end-all of regulatory compliance, but it is a technology that will form the foundation of that compliance for a broad swathe of the IoT ecosystem. Beyond just compliance, they are key also to adding value to product lifecycles and creating stickiness for users through feature in-field updates and service delivery.

These findings are from ABI Research’s Digital Authentication and Embedded Security Market Data report, part of the company’s Trusted Device Solutions research service, which includes research, data, and ABI Insights.

Collaboration falls under Anthropic’s “AI for Good” focus. Through embedding Claude, Binti will help social workers save administrative time and focus on working with children and families

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Binti, the company that is the leader in building software to support social workers and improve outcomes in the child welfare system, announced it’s now collaborating with Anthropic to extend its reach across government agencies in the US with Artificial Intelligence (AI). The mission-driven technology company currently serves over 550 agencies in 36 states and the District of Columbia with its SaaS offerings, reaching agencies serving 46% of child welfare in the U.S, and is now expanding with its new AI offering, powered by Anthropic’s Claude.

Many social workers spend more than 50% of their time on administrative tasks, which leads to social worker burnout and not enough time with children and families. Binti and Anthropic are collaborating to launch AI tools that streamline much of this administrative work. Binti is careful not to use AI to make any decisions or recommendations. Social workers review and approve what is drafted by AI, ensuring there is human review of all work.

New features of Binti AI include:

• Binti Form and Case Note Completion: Social workers can record meetings with families, with their permission. The recording fills out a draft of the social workers’ paperwork or case notes for them, saving hours of administrative time. Social workers can also upload handwritten notes to fill out a draft of their paperwork for them.
• Chat with Binti AI: Social workers can chat with their case using AI to search through hundreds of pages of forms, case notes, case data, and agency policies to quickly get answers.

“We’re thrilled to collaborate with Anthropic on safe use of AI and leverage its LLM as we expand our offerings to social workers across the country,” said CEO and Co-founder of Binti, Felicia Curcuru. “We have a strong presence across local and state government agencies, serving over 46% of children in care nationwide with our software products, and know that by furthering our offerings with AI, powered by Claude, we will be able to save social workers even more time, and empower them to work more closely with families and children. The ultimate goal is to help every child have a family and a fair chance at life.”

Binti is uniquely positioned as a trusted partner to sell into government agencies today and show immediate ROI with its quick deployment.

“When we founded Anthropic, we believed AI could transform lives in meaningful ways,” said Dario Amodei, CEO and co-founder of Anthropic. “Seeing Binti help connect children with loving families faster by cutting through months of paperwork is exactly the real-world impact we hoped to enable.”

Binti and Anthropic did a pilot launch with 20 child welfare agencies in recent months. The positive results are leading them to open up broadly to all child welfare agencies going forward. Workers have reported saving hours of administrative time every week after using the AI tools.

• Takes the lead in expanding the domestic automotive semiconductor partnership ecosystem

SEOUL, South Korea , Aug. 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Hyundai Mobis has obtained the highest grade of ISO 26262 certification, an international standard for functional safety, for its entire vehicle semiconductor R&D process. It is noted that this rigorous certification was obtained not for specific products, but for the entire process ranging from semiconductor design to quality verification.

This certification means that when Hyundai Mobis designs semiconductors through the standardized R&D process in the future, the semiconductors designed through the process will have the same level of reliability as those certified as products. Hyundai Mobis plans to actively share these achievements and know-how with its major partners and take the lead in expanding the domestic automotive semiconductor ecosystem.

Hyundai Mobis announced on the 21st that it has obtained ISO 26262: 2018 2nd edition from Exida, a world-renowned automotive functional safety and cybersecurity certification agency based in Germany. ISO 26262 is an international standard for preventing safety accidents in automotive electrical and electronic systems.

Along with ISO 26262 certification, Hyundai Mobis received the highest D grade in the Automotive Safety Integrity Level (ASIL). ASIL is divided into four levels from A to D, with D requiring a strict reliability of 99% or higher to prevent safety accidents.

With this certification, Hyundai Mobis has proven its semiconductor design capabilities and technological stability through an authoritative external institution. These achievements can be attributed to Hyundai Mobis’ acquisition of Hyundai Autron in 2021, which enabled the company to begin mass production of its own semiconductors this year, backed by its industry-leading R&D environment.

• A total of 16 types of semiconductors are scheduled to be mass-produced at 20 million units this year…expected to lead to the company‘s improved competitiveness in core components

Hyundai Mobis expects this certification to enhance the competitiveness of its self-designed semiconductors and controllers and other components equipped with them. As the importance of semiconductors grows, customers are increasingly preferring suppliers with standard certifications. This certification will also positively impact Hyundai Mobis’ competitiveness in global automotive component supply contracts.

“With this certification, we have secured a strategic foundation in the automotive semiconductor sector, which will determine future mobility competitiveness. We will take the lead in establishing an R&D environment that emphasizes functional safety by strengthening partnerships with major domestic and international companies while internalizing technology,” said Lee Hee Hyun, Vice President of Hyundai Mobis’ System Semiconductor R&D Group.

Currently, Hyundai Mobis is mass-producing a total of 16 types of semiconductors, including ASIL-D-rated integrated semiconductors for airbags, power semiconductors for eco-friendly vehicles, integrated semiconductors for motor control, and power semiconductors for AVN (audio, video, and navigation) electronic components, through external foundries. The number of semiconductors to be mass-produced this year alone will exceed 20 million.

Hyundai Mobis is also accelerating research and development with the goal of completing 11 next-generation semiconductors, including semiconductors for battery management systems, lamps, and communication, and a system on a chip (SoC) for networks, within three years. To this end, the company is also collaborating with major domestic foundry companies.

• Jointly enhancing the technological competitiveness of ‘K-automotive semiconductors‘…expanding the ecosystem through sharing know-how with partner companies

Hyundai Mobis plans to actively communicate and share the know-how it has acquired through functional safety certification with major domestic and overseas partners. At the same time, it will also work to expand its own domestic automotive semiconductor ecosystem in Korea.

In fact, Hyundai Mobis is increasing its collaboration with major domestic semiconductor companies. The company established a joint lab with Global Technologies, a semiconductor design specialist, this year and achieved research and development results in semiconductors for next-generation smart ambient lighting. It has also completed the development of an integrated drive semiconductor with Dongwoon Anatech and is now moving into its mass production.

Hyundai Mobis is also strengthening partnerships with leading domestic foundry companies to expand the scope of collaboration, including process optimization. Additionally, it plans to enhance cooperation with design houses that serve as intermediaries between fabless and foundry companies, semiconductor packaging companies, and specialized firms in design, analysis, and verification, as well as research institutions.
