The Foundation of Functional Safety
The ageing of hardware, radiation or wear and tear of components leads to random errors. There are only limited ways to avoid this type of error. Therefore, a safety-critical system must recognize and control random errors. The purpose of the safety concept is to describe the faults and measures to be considered.

Safety Standards
Safety standards are integral to developing safety-critical systems in various industries, ensuring that these systems are reliable and safe for their intended uses. It's important for software developers and engineers working in safety-critical industries to be familiar with the applicable standards and regulations in their field. Compliance with these standards not only ensures the safety and reliability of their products but also facilitates market access and acceptance. Here's a list of some of the most popular safety standards across different sectors we are familiar with:
- DO-178C / EUROCAE ED-12C - Guides aeronautical software development for safety and reliability in commercial aircraft systems.
- EN 50128 - Specifies software requirements for railway control and protection systems to ensure railway operation safety.
- IEC 62304 - Defines life cycle requirements for medical device software with an emphasis on safety and risk management.
- IEC 61508 - An umbrella functional safety standard for electrical, electronic, and programmable electronic systems across industries.
- ISO 13849 - Pertains to safety-related parts of control systems in the machinery sector.
- ISO 26262 - Provides an automotive safety lifecycle, offering a risk-based approach to safety critical components in automotive applications.
