Connected Vehicle Cybersecurity Starts with Understanding Interfaces

A connected vehicle is only as secure as its least understood interface.

Modern vehicles communicate through apps, cloud platforms, cellular networks, OTA updates, diagnostics, V2X, sensors and in-vehicle networks. Each connection adds capability and also a potential attack path.

ISO/SAE 21434 current edition brings the discipline needed to identify, assess and manage these risks across the vehicle lifecycle.

You cannot secure what you have not mapped.
