The company has also announced the acquisition of a strategic stake in Israel-based Cymotive Technologies Ltd., a specialist automotive cybersecurity company, as the firm looks to strengthen its software-defined vehicle (SDV) and cybersecurity capabilities for global automobile manufacturers.
Cymotive, headquartered in Israel, is regarded as a leading automotive cybersecurity specialist and was founded jointly by senior Israeli cybersecurity experts along with CARIAD, the automotive software company of the Volkswagen Group.
The company specialises in end-to-end vehicle lifecycle cybersecurity solutions covering secure architecture, threat modelling, intrusion detection, continuous monitoring, homologation and regulatory compliance. Cymotive has worked with several global automotive companies and focuses on addressing cybersecurity threats specific to connected and software-defined vehicles.
Its product portfolio includes Cybersecurity Management Systems (CSMS), automated security and penetration testing platform CyClarity, vulnerability management platform CarAlert, intrusion detection systems (IDS), automotive cybersecurity cloud solutions, and engineering and compliance services.
KPIT said the investment aligns with its long-term strategy of building differentiated AI-led mobility technology solutions for global OEMs. The acquisition is expected to significantly strengthen KPIT’s automotive cybersecurity capabilities, which the company described as a natural extension of its embedded software, SDV and systems engineering business.
The company believes cybersecurity is becoming increasingly critical as vehicles become more connected, software-driven and autonomous. Through the Cymotive partnership, KPIT aims to help global OEMs integrate cybersecurity into vehicle platforms from the design stage through production and operations.
The investment is also expected to strengthen KPIT’s solutions and products business strategy. The company said the partnership would create opportunities to build reusable platforms and cybersecurity products, potentially adding product- and licensing-led revenue streams alongside its existing engineering services business.
KPIT Technologies has emerged as one of the key global engineering and mobility technology firms focused on electric, autonomous and software-defined mobility transformation. The latest move further deepens its positioning in the rapidly evolving automotive software ecosystem.
