Digitalisation has recently accelerated and technological progress is also radically transforming the automotive industry: in 2023 global connected vehicles are expected to increase by 134%, from 330M in 2018 to 775M.
Connectivity is therefore key to the mobility of the future. While features such as adaptive cruise control, navigation and keyless entry systems do enhance the driving experience, they also pose significant cybersecurity risks. These could range from unauthorised access to vehicle data, theft of personal information, and even the ability to remotely control a vehicle and cause it to malfunction, thus jeopardising the safety of passengers and other road users.
Being automotive cybersecurity a complex and multifaceted issue that extends beyond just the cars themselves, the industry is developing guidelines – such as UNECE R155-156, ISO/SAE 21434 and IEC 62443 – for the entire supply chain, aimed at integrating security features throughout the entire vehicle development cycle, from concept and design to implementation, testing, and production.
Sababa Automotive Security portfolio tackles the evolving cybersecurity issues, helping OEMs, tier suppliers and aftermarket players to comply with the regulations, ensuring cyber safe vehicle production, data management, update distribution and timely threat mitigation.
