Approaches for Vehicle Cyber-Security in the US

Abstract

Recently, cyber-risks in modern intelligent vehicles have become concerns to society have become concerns to society. First, carry-in devices, such as smart-phones and USB-memory -devices used outside of vehicles expose vehicles to various cyber various cyber-attacks from the external IT (Information Technology) world. Next, Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS external IT (Information Technology) world. ) which provide position information to many valuable functions ha valuable functions have vulnerabilities to jamming and spoofing. Finally, emerging vehicle jamming and spoofing. Finally, emerging vehicle-to-vehicle communication poses security challenges, because of its unique communication schema wher e all e all neighboring vehicles exchange data within a short duration. In this report, we examine these vulnerabilities’ impact on vehicle cyber-security and introduce various countermeasures against these vulnerabilities in the US.
