Autonomous Revolution: The Intersection of AI, Cyber Security, and Connected Cars

Modern cars are essentially computers on wheels, containing numerous onboard computers and code.

Nearly all cars today are considered “connected” with significant data usage.

There is a growth in connected vehicles—even non-self-driving cars—which raises overall cybersecurity risks.

Complexity in vehicle systems can lead to increased security vulnerabilities.

Older vehicles pose concerns due to outdated software and lack of support from manufacturers.

Cybersecurity needs to be integrated into the vehicle design from the outset.

Consumers should be educated about their vehicles and ensure software updates are applied regularly.

Privacy concerns exist related to data collection by vehicles and how that information is utilized.

Both manufacturers and consumers have roles in bolstering security in connected vehicles.

Real-world hacking incidents have highlighted the seriousness of these threats.
