Cybersecurity

Most modern consumers would not consider buying a new car without at least some connected technology. Automotive manufacturers are aware of this demand, so most of today’s new vehicles can communicate with smart phones, smart homes and other technologies. Although this interconnectivity promises increased convenience and comfort, it also introduces new risks.

When systems connect to one another, they become vulnerable to cyberattacks. This is as true for automotive technology as it is for any other network of devices, meaning manufacturers are responsible for cybersecurity at every stage of the product lifecycle. From product development and production to when the vehicle is in use years after the last car in a series rolls off the production line, cybersecurity measures must be in place. A cybersecurity management system (CSMS) helps you track and manage these risks.

Our team of experts can answer your cybersecurity questions and help you feel more confident in your processes and systems.
