Who is worried about automotive security and safety?UltraSoC Blog - Aileen Ryan, UltraSoCMay. 16, 2019 |
I, for one, most definitely am! I’ve written previously about how tackling this problem makes good business sense. But the more immersed I become in this topic, the more I feel personally concerned about the implications of this, and the snail’s-pace at which the market is responding to it.
I’ve just read an Upstream Security report which indicates that cyber-incidents in vehicles in Q1 2019 are up more than 300 percent against the same period last year. This is alarming! Even more alarming is that in these incidents, black-hat hackers are tipping the scales … no longer can the automotive companies believe that these attacks are somehow “less dangerous” because they were originated by the white-hat community.
