Thanks to advanced new technologies, automakers might soon be able to detect and prevent future threats coming from autonomous and connected car hackers – with the simulator testing for possible security flaws.
Scientists at the University of Warwick in the UK will lead new research into fighting the new wave of security crimes that are expected to plague connected and autonomous cars, with a 2.1 million pounds simulator dedicated towards simulated such possible scenarios. It uses a Faraday cage to make sure no wireless signals can enter the premise and can test in a safe way possible security flaws. “We’re going to do research that is ‘attacker in the loop’,” said Professor Carsten Maple, director for cyber security research. “People have gone in through DAB, through mobile networks; they may even be able to get access through malware on a mobile phone, or an embedded SIM in the vehicle,” he said. “We’ve got to plan for these risks.” For the full article click here
