Your code now carries
the same liability
as the hardware it runs on.
With the EU Cyber Resilience Act and the revised Product Liability Directive, software makers now face the obligations industrial manufacturers have lived with for decades: conformity, traceability, liability for defects and recall-ready processes. Far Beyond brings 10+ years of hands-on quality and crisis management from automotive and aerospace to software teams — so you are compliant, defensible and ready when something goes wrong.
01 / Ship software that passes the audit, not just the tests.
Compliance
Regulation is catching up with software. The Cyber Resilience Act, the AI Act and sector standards such as ISO 26262, ASPICE, IEC 62304 or DO-178C require evidence, not intentions: documented processes, risk assessments, vulnerability handling and traceability from requirement to release. Far Beyond maps which rules apply to your product, closes the gaps and builds a compliance setup your teams can actually run.
- Regulatory applicability check: CRA, AI Act, Machinery Regulation, sector standards
- Gap analysis of development, release and vulnerability handling processes
- Technical documentation and conformity assessment preparation
- Process alignment with ASPICE, ISO 26262, IEC 62304, ISO/SAE 21434
- Preparation and support for customer and notified body audits
02 / When a defect becomes a claim, be ready to prove what happened.
Liability
Under the revised EU Product Liability Directive, software — including updates and AI systems — is explicitly a product, and defects can trigger strict liability claims. When your software fails in the field, the questions come fast: what failed, who is affected, who is responsible? Far Beyond prepares you before the incident and stands beside you during it, with the containment, investigation and documentation methods proven in industrial recalls.
- Liability exposure assessment across products, versions and customer contracts
- Field incident and recall readiness: escalation, containment, update strategy
- Independent root cause analysis of software-related failures
- Responsibility mapping for suppliers and open-source components
- Technical evidence files for insurers, customers and legal counsel
03 / An outside view on how good your software really is.
Quality Review
Test coverage and green pipelines do not always reflect the real quality of a product. Far Beyond reviews your software quality the way an OEM or auditor would — processes, metrics, field data and customer complaints — and gives you a clear, prioritised picture of where the risk sits and what to fix first.
- Software quality system and development process review
- Analysis of field defects, customer complaints and escaped bugs
- Release, change and configuration management assessment
- Quality KPIs and early-warning indicators management can steer by
- Prioritised improvement roadmap with quick wins and long-term actions
