SGS Validates DOBOT’s CR 30H Series for Cybersecurity Compliance with ISO 10218-1:2025

SGS has showcased its advanced expertise in assessing robotic systems by successfully verifying DOBOT’s CR 30H Series against the cybersecurity mandates outlined in the latest ISO 10218-1:2025 standard for industrial robot safety.

Collaborative Effort Ensures Cutting-Edge Cybersecurity Standards

In a strategic collaboration, SGS partnered with DOBOT, a prominent name in collaborative robotics, to confirm that the CR 30H Series adheres to the stringent cybersecurity safety requirements of ISO 10218-1:2025. This achievement not only affirms the robot’s secure-by-design architecture but also enhances its suitability for sophisticated industrial manufacturing environments and facilitates broader international market acceptance.

In February 2026, SGS awarded DOBOT a Verification of Conformity (VoC), certifying the CR 30H Series’ full compliance with all cybersecurity provisions of the updated ISO standard. This project marks a pivotal advancement for SGS, reinforcing its leadership in both functional safety and cybersecurity evaluations for robotic technologies.

Thorough Cybersecurity Assessment at SGS’s Guangzhou Lab

The comprehensive evaluation took place at SGS’s specialized cybersecurity laboratory in Guangzhou, China. The assessment encompassed a wide array of cybersecurity criteria, including:

• Threat modeling and risk analysis
• Access control mechanisms and identity verification
• Implementation of secure communication protocols
• Protection of system configurations
• Management of ports and interfaces
• Secure and reliable software update processes

Throughout the verification process, SGS’s cybersecurity experts collaborated closely with DOBOT’s engineering team to identify vulnerabilities, optimize product design, and streamline certification pathways.
