Microchip Secures IEC 62443-4-1 ML2 Certification, Strengthening Industrial Cybersecurity
April 10, 2026
News
Microchip Technology released information that it is now certified by UL Solutions to the IEC 62443‑4‑1 Maturity Level 2 (ML2) Industrial Automation and Control System standard. The achievement highlights the fact that Microchip’s product development process meets globally recognized secure by design criteria.
The audit-backed certification process offers customers confidence in Microchip’s products being designed under a proven, repeatable, and independently verified cybersecurity framework. Microchip integrates security into hardware and software from the beginning phases of design through deployment for emerging regulatory requirements such as the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA).
“Achieving IEC 62443‑4‑1 ML2 certification reflects Microchip’s long‑standing commitment to rigorous security practices,” said Nuri Dagdeviren, corporate vice president of Microchip Technology’s secure computing group. “Customers need partners who can demonstrate secure development maturity, not simply claim it. This independently validated certification strengthens trust, reduces risk across the hardware–firmware stack and supports our customers as they work toward CRA and other standards‑based compliance.”
