FAUST: fault and security testing for vehicle systems
EF 2023-24
Résumé
The automotive industry primarily focuses on delivering safe vehicles to consumers, where the residual risk of hazard is lower than the level accepted by society. With the introduction of automation and connectivity, vehicles must also be secure. More than twenty successful attacks affecting at least one key safety-critical function have been reported in recent years. This project brings together academia, industry, and government to ascertain security needs for modern connected and automated vehicles as well as develop security testing technology for electronic control units used in the automotive domain.
