Just How Secure Is Your Car?
Hackers are finding increasingly sophisticated ways to break into cars and control functions from radio to braking. Do carmakers have time to get it right?
Car security has been something that has periodically appeared in the public eye over many years, mostly with respect to either car theft or “chipping” of engine control. Those stories have shown a slightly patchy record for engineering solidly secure vehicle systems, but with new threats emerging the stakes are being raised.
With the amount of compute power in cars expected to increase by 100x between 2015 and 2020, hackers are finding increasingly sophisticated ways to break into cars and control functions from radio to braking. Let’s look at some of the challenges in designing a secure car, and what can be done to address them.
