Threats to the connected car



Cars are more connected than ever before. As the demand for cleaner emissions and better transport safety grows, the modern car has become increasingly computerised. In the relevant industries, it has been known for some time that electronic vehicle systems contain exploitable vulnerabilities. However, it is only within the past decade that academics, governments, vehicle manufacturers and the cyber security research community have begun to focus on automotive security from a cyber perspective, as opposed to the traditional viewpoint of vehicle theft. NCC Group has a dedicated transport practice that provides a comprehensive suite of services, including design reviews, vehicle penetration tests, cryptographic assessments and software escrow.
