Security in Mobility
IT security represents a major challenge in the automobile industry at present. The scope for attacking vehicles is also rising with the increased interconnection of vehicles and an increasingly large proportion of complex software in modern vehicles. The research area of automotive security considers the overarching IT security system for vehicles. The aim is to consider IT security throughout a vehicle’s entire development and product life cycle for functional groups overall. The key research area of automotive security is currently focusing on:
- Security testing of automotive hardware and software, e.g. by means of automotive penetration testing, fuzzing
- Model-based automotive security and test case generation from security models (e.g. attacker models for autonomous driving)
- Safe vehicle communication (e.g. Secure Car2X, Secure CAN)
- Reputation systems for vehicles
