The integration brings Ellisys’ Bluetooth protocol analysis capabilities to DEKRA’s SolutionPRO BEST platform, bolstering CCC Digital Key™ Certification processes.

“Through this partnership with DEKRA, we are broadening the application of our tools within the CCC certification sphere, creating a fluid workflow that spans from initial development through final validation…”— Mario Pasquali, President and CEO of EllisysGENEVA, SWITZERLAND, July 21, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Ellisys has announced a new alliance with DEKRA, incorporating Ellisys’ top-tier Bluetooth® protocol analysis technology into DEKRA SolutionPRO BEST, a platform for Bluetooth test automation. This combined offering improves CCC Digital Key™ Certification workflows and offers automotive OEMs and suppliers more detailed insight into Bluetooth protocol behavior during validation.

DEKRA, serving as a CCC Authorized Test Laboratory (ATL), contributes extensive knowledge in CCC Digital Key™ Certification, automated test execution, and a test environment that is flexible and hardware‑agnostic. Ellisys complements this with sophisticated Bluetooth protocol capture, decoding, timing analysis, and performance metrics, granting engineering teams a more detailed view of device behavior. Both DEKRA and Ellisys, alongside other CCC members, convened at DEKRA Lausitzring’s automotive test center in Germany last month for the 18th CCC Digital Key™ End-to-End Plugfest to push forward the testing and validation of CCC Digital Key™ implementations.

“The majority of automotive manufacturers and their Tier 1 suppliers depend on Ellisys Bluetooth protocol analyzers, and a large number actively take part in CCC interoperability workshops and the wider CCC Digital Key™ effort,” stated Mario Pasquali, President and CEO of Ellisys. “By collaborating with DEKRA, we are expanding the reach of our instruments into the CCC certification landscape, facilitating a smooth workflow from development to validation and offering deeper insights into real-world performance.”

“Bringing Ellisys Bluetooth protocol analysis into SolutionPRO enhances our capacity to provide fast, reliable, and repeatable CCC Digital Key™ certification services,” said Juan Carlos Mora, DEKRA Vice President of Business Line Connectivity. “Automotive clients increasingly require thorough visibility into protocol behavior during certification, and this partnership delivers exactly that—an automated, end-to-end setup that speeds up development and boosts overall quality.”
