With the new TLS Smart Metering Inspector from achelos, manufacturers and testing centres can now test the security and conformity of software for smart metres and smart metre gateways efficiently and flexibly. The test suite has already been optimised to the requirements of the Federal Office of Information Security (BSI) and so offers optimal preparation for certification to BSI TR-03116-3.

Today’s smart metre and smart metre gateway software needs to meet the toughest security requirements, as it handles personal and household data. For integration of the devices into the smart grid, these requirements are stipulated by TR-03116-3 from the BSI. The new smart metre test suite from achelos reliably complies with all the criteria of this guideline.

Efficient software development right from the outset

The TLS Smart Metering Inspector offers comprehensive, domain-specific tests for correct implementation and vulnerabilities in order to ensure the robustness of the software. What’s more, the test suite impresses with a high degree of automation, simple integration into other systems, and an intuitive web-based user interface. Plus, detailed reporting and audit-compliant documentation guarantee traceability of the test execution. Integrated into the development environment right from the start, the test suite effectively prevents unnecessary iterations during certification.
