Cybersecurity for Autonomous Vehicles

Automotive Cybersecurity Services

automotive hardware testing

What we offer:

  • Cybersecurity for CAVs (connected and autonomous vehicles)
  • Security standards compliance
  • Cloud offerings (SaaS, PaaS, IaaS) risk assessment
  • Supplier risk assessment

Why Do You Need Cybersecurity?

Increased connectivity of autonomous vehicles brings more potential security risks.

 

Like any other device connected to a network, a CAV can become a target of various cyber-attacks, from ransomware to vehicle theft.

 

 

Autonomous Vehicles Communication Systems

  • WiFi networks
  • Roadside computing units
  • Vehicular cloud services
  • Dedicated short-range communications (DSRC)
  • Vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V)
  • Vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I)
  • Vehicle-to-everything (V2X)
Rising autonomous vehicle adoption underscores the critical need for robust cybersecurity for autonomous vehicles to ensure passenger safety.

Why Choose NOVELIC

Through years of working on challenging projects, we have learned the ins and outs of automotive software and hardware and potential weak points of each system. Major automotive OEMs and Tier 1 clients have trusted us with their products.

Connected and Autonomous Vehicles
(CAV) Cyber Threats

Common autonomous vehicles attacks:

  • Man-in-the-middle (MitM) attack
  • Side-channel
  • 3rd party taking control of the vehicle/surrounding infrastructure
  • Denial-of-service (DoS)
  • Unauthorized software modifications
  • 3rd party accessing PII (personally identifiable information)

Risk Assessment Methodology

There is currently no internationally recognized cyber security standard/framework for autonomous vehicles, which is why applying best practices and security controls is essential. We conduct risk assessment using the information assurance methodology based on the following:

  • ISO 27005:2013
  • ISO/IEC 27005:2011
  • Information technology
  • Security techniques
  • Information security risk management
