IT security is currently posing major challenges to the automotive industry. With the increasing connectivity of vehicles and a growing amount of complex software in modern vehicles, the attack surface for vehicles is also increasing. The research focus of Automotive Security examines holistic IT security for vehicles. The goal is to consider IT security across the entire development and product lifecycle of a vehicle, transcending functional groups.
