Ellisys’s Bluetooth® Vanguard™
By incorporating Ellisys Bluetooth protocol analysis into DEKRA’s SolutionPRO BEST platform, CCC Digital Key™ Certification workflows are strengthened
By partnering with DEKRA, we are extending the reach of our tools into the CCC certification environment, enabling a seamless workflow from development through validation…”— Mario Pasquali, Ellisys President and CEOGENEVA, SWITZERLAND, July 21, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Ellisys today revealed a new partnership with DEKRA that merges Ellisys’ premier Bluetooth® protocol analysis technology into DEKRA SolutionPRO BEST, an automated Bluetooth test platform. The joint offering improves CCC Digital Key™ Certification processes and supplies automotive OEMs and suppliers with enhanced insight into Bluetooth protocol behavior throughout validation.
DEKRA holds status as a CCC Authorized Test Laboratory (ATL) and brings extensive know‑how in CCC Digital Key™ Certification, automated test execution, and a flexible, hardware‑agnostic testing environment. Ellisys adds sophisticated Bluetooth protocol capture, decoding, timing analysis, and performance metrics that afford engineering teams greater visibility into device behavior. Last month, representatives from DEKRA, Ellisys, and other CCC members convened at the DEKRA Lausitzring automotive test center in Germany for the 18th CCC Digital Key™ End-to-End Plugfest, aiming to further the testing and validation of CCC Digital Key™ implementations.
“Most automotive manufacturers and their Tier 1 suppliers rely on Ellisys Bluetooth protocol analyzers, and many participate actively in CCC interoperability workshops and the broader CCC Digital Key™ initiative,” said Mario Pasquali, CEO and President of Ellisys. “By partnering with DEKRA, we are extending the reach of our tools into the CCC certification environment, enabling a seamless workflow from development through validation and providing richer insights into real‑world performance.”
“Integrating Ellisys Bluetooth protocol analysis into SolutionPRO strengthens our ability to deliver fast, dependable, and repeatable CCC Digital Key™ certification services,” said Juan Carlos Mora, DEKRA Vice President of Business Line Connectivity. “Automotive customers increasingly expect deep visibility into protocol behavior during certification, and this collaboration provides exactly that—an automated, end‑to‑end environment that accelerates development and improves overall quality.”
