Get your exclusive copy of the 2024 Cybersecurity Fact File. What are the challenges and risks the industry are seeing for 2024?

Cybersecurity threats are not static; it’s a dynamic environment that’s ever-changing. Every day, there is a new potential threat, and while technology is becoming more sophisticated, so are threat actors with new security dangers emerging constantly, making cybersecurity not only valuable but essential for the automotive industry. At the same time, the regulatory landscape is presenting further challenges. Last year, ISO/SAE 21434 was new and automotive companies were trying to figure out what it meant; OEMs are now implementing and responding to it. There is now a June/July 2024 deadline by which pretty much all vehicles impacted by UN ECE R155/R156 will need to be compliant.

There is a lot of fear and uncertainty around how security in the automotive industry will be impacted by artificial intelligence (AI). And as AI, vehicle autonomy and connectivity increase exposure to attacks, it has never been more important to be fully aware of emerging threats and strengthen cybersecurity programs. A big question for the industry right now is how much safety and cybersecurity will be required as vehicles become more autonomous, connected and software defined?

This fact file will focus on the key topics areas that are big in the automotive cybersecurity space right now, and causing questions to be raised on how the challenges associated with them can be overcome.

• 1. The Impact of AI on Automotive Cybersecurity
• 2. Cyber Regulations: A Shifting Compliance Landscape
