In recent years, cybersecurity has become a buzzword in nearly every industry. Companies that have never dealt with a data breach or a cyber threat have started asking, “Why is cybersecurity important?” And the automotive world is not any different from the rest. Cybersecurity has become a fundamental concern for the development of autonomous vehicle (AV) systems, as attacks can have serious consequences.
Hello and welcome to the Siemens Security By Design podcast. I'm your host, Lee Harrison. Today, I am joined by Dr. Siraj Shaikh, a professor of Systems Security at Swansea University in Wales, also Director of CyberOwl, a marine security technology provider, and Chair of the cybersecurity stream at the GAAC, the Global Automotive Advisory Council.
In this episode, he will help us understand several important topics related to cybersecurity in the automotive industry, such as the challenges of achieving Level 5 self-driving cars, the importance of security in the industry, and the challenges of integrating cybersecurity into hardware design and development.
You will also hear more about the role of Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools in automating the process of identifying potential threats and the growing interest in cybersecurity among students.
