Privacy and security in autonomous vehicles

Abstract

The goal of this chapter is to give a high-level overview about the importance of privacy and security provisions in autonomous vehicles. It describes where we currently are, where the challenges with security and privacy may be in the context of autonomous vehicles, and what should be done to deal with those challenges. Thereby, it is also important to take the user into account, as he/she has to trust the autonomous vehicle and the company behind it; otherwise autonomous vehicles will not get accepted. Trust here is related to security, privacy but also safety.
