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

SGS has confirmed that DOBOT’s CR 30H Series collaborative robots meet the cybersecurity safety requirements outlined in the latest ISO 10218-1:2025 standard for industrial robots.

The certification verifies that DOBOT’s CR 30H Series adheres to international secure-by-design principles, enhancing its suitability for advanced industrial manufacturing and facilitating access to global markets.

In February 2026, SGS awarded DOBOT a Verification of Conformity (VoC), affirming full compliance with all cybersecurity aspects of ISO 10218-1:2025. This achievement represents a key advancement for SGS, marking its first cybersecurity assessment and testing aligned with the updated ISO 10218-1:2025 standard. It also reinforces SGS’s position as a leader in evaluating both functional safety and cybersecurity for robotic technologies.

The comprehensive evaluation took place at SGS’s specialised cybersecurity laboratory in Guangzhou, China. The assessment encompassed a wide range of cybersecurity criteria, including threat modelling and risk assessment, access control and identity authentication, secure communication protocols, configuration protection, port and interface management, and secure software update processes.

Throughout the verification process, SGS’s cybersecurity team collaborated closely with DOBOT to identify vulnerabilities, optimise product design, and facilitate a streamlined certification pathway.

Ross Wang, Senior Manager of Business Development for Cybersecurity, Connectivity & Products at SGS, stated: “As a leader in cybersecurity standardisation and regulatory compliance, we are proud to support DOBOT in achieving this important certification. This milestone highlights our expertise in industrial robot safety and cybersecurity, and reflects our commitment to helping customers meet increasingly stringent requirements for intelligent manufacturing systems.”

He added: “With robotics adoption accelerating across industrial sectors, ensuring safe and secure operation is critical. DOBOT can now move forward with confidence, knowing its products are designed to minimise risks to both operators and working environments.”

DOBOT’s CR Series collaborative robots are engineered for safe, flexible, and efficient human-robot collaboration across diverse industries such as automotive, consumer electronics, semiconductors, healthcare, chemicals, and retail.

Key specifications of the CR Series include payload capacities ranging from 3 kg to 16 kg, high repeatability of ±0.02 mm, 22 integrated safety features, certifications to ISO 13849 and ISO/TS 15066, five adjustable collision detection levels, and optional SafeSkin technology that provides proximity sensing within 15 cm.

These features enable manufacturers to enhance productivity and operational flexibility while reducing labour costs.

Xie Junjie, Product Director at DOBOT, commented: “Meeting cybersecurity requirements is a fundamental prerequisite for robotics entering advanced industrial applications and global markets.

“We selected SGS for its proven expertise across industrial control systems, IoT, functional safety and cybersecurity. Their end-to-end support, from standards interpretation to technical assessment and implementation, has enabled us to reduce risk, achieve efficient certification and accelerate global deployment.”

As industrial robots become more integrated with production networks, control systems, and enterprise platforms, cybersecurity threats such as unauthorised access, configuration tampering, and insecure updates pose increasing risks to operational continuity and human safety. Compliance with ISO 10218-1:2025 assists manufacturers in mitigating these risks by embedding robust cybersecurity controls into robotic system design.

SGS offers robotics and cybersecurity services covering industrial robots, collaborative robots, robot controllers, intelligent production equipment, and other industrial automation products. Supported by a global network of laboratories and multidisciplinary expertise, SGS helps robotics companies navigate complex international safety and cybersecurity standards confidently.

This collaboration is part of SGS’s broader DIGITAL TRUST initiative, a global framework designed to help customers establish and maintain trust across the digital ecosystem. By extending DIGITAL TRUST to the robotics sector, SGS supports manufacturers in enhancing resilience, transparency, and confidence in increasingly connected and intelligent robotic systems.
