Hai Robotics Achieves IEC 62443-4-1 Certification, Strengthening Cybersecurity for Automated Warehouse Operations

Hai Robotics has achieved IEC 62443-4-1 certification, an internationally recognized cybersecurity standard for industrial automation and control systems (IACS). The certification underscores the company’s commitment to building secure automation systems through a structured secure development lifecycle.

For customers deploying warehouse automation systems, this milestone provides added confidence that the robotic solutions supporting daily operations are developed with cybersecurity integrated from the beginning, helping reduce operational risk in increasingly connected environments.

As warehouses adopt more advanced automation and integrate robotics with warehouse management systems (WMS), enterprise platforms, and cloud-based infrastructure, operational technology (OT) environments are becoming more interconnected. While this connectivity improves efficiency and visibility, it also increases the importance of cybersecurity in ensuring stable and continuous operations.

In automated warehouse environments, potential cybersecurity incidents could disrupt order fulfillment, delay logistics workflows, or affect system availability. IEC 62443 was developed specifically to address such risks in industrial settings, establishing globally recognized requirements for secure system design and lifecycle management.

IEC 62443-4-1 focuses on the secure development process of industrial products. By achieving certification, Hai Robotics has implemented structured practices that include security risk assessment during design, systematic testing, vulnerability management, and coordinated security update mechanisms. These processes are intended to support long-term system resilience for customers operating mission-critical warehouse operations.

“Warehouse automation has become an essential part of modern supply chains, which makes system reliability and cybersecurity increasingly important,” said Connie Ann, Safety Solution Manager at Hai Robotics. “IEC 62443-4-1 certification reflects our approach to embedding security into product development processes, helping customers operate automated facilities with greater operational confidence.”

The certification also supports customers operating in global markets where cybersecurity expectations for industrial systems continue to evolve. Alignment with the IEC 62443 framework can help streamline security evaluations and procurement reviews across regions.

IEC 62443-4-1 is part of the broader IEC 62443 industrial cybersecurity framework. Building on this milestone, Hai Robotics will continue enhancing its secure development lifecycle, vulnerability response capabilities, and system-level security architecture as part of its long-term commitment to delivering reliable and secure warehouse automation solutions.
