a) provides an automotive safety lifecycle (management, development, production, operation, service, decommissioning) and supports tailoring the necessary activities during these lifecycle phases.

Although ISO 26262 is concerned with functional safety of E/E systems, it provides a framework within which safety-related systems based on other technologies can be considered. mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, electrical, electronic, programmable electronic) and applied at the various levels of the development process. System safety is achieved through a number of safety measures, which are implemented in a variety of technologies (e.g. ISO 26262 includes guidance to avoid these risks by providing appropriate requirements and processes. With the trend of increasing technological complexity, software content and mechatronic implementation, there are increasing risks from systematic failures and random hardware failures. New functionalities such as driver assistance, propulsion, in vehicle dynamics control and active and passive safety systems increasingly touch the domain of system safety engineering. – Part 9: Automotive Safety Integrity Level (ASIL)-oriented and safety-oriented analyses – Part 6: Product development at the software level – Part 5: Product development at the hardware level

– Part 4: Product development at the system level – Part 2: Management of functional safety ISO 26262 consists of the following parts, under the general title “Road vehicles – Functional safety”: ISO 26262 is a standard related to the safety of electrical and electronic systems within a car and addresses possible hazards caused by malfunctioning behavior of safety-related systems, including interaction of these systems.
