Module R - REVERSE ENGINEERING & AUTOMOTIVE CYBERSECURITY
‘Ethical Car Hacking to understand and appreciate the need for Automotive Cybersecurity’
Description
The Vehicle Systems Forensics investigator needs an awareness around Automotive Cybersecurity and the implications of reverse engineering vehicle systems. The automotive industry is going through a huge transition now. The technologies that are being developed on the modern vehicle are at risk of a cyber-attack. Whilst the automotive cyber security scene and motor industry is working hard to minimise these attacks, they are still prevalent, and we see them regular in the ways modern vehicles are sometimes stolen and in responsible disclosures to the manufacture by ethical hackers.
The implications of these systems being compromised could result in death or serious injury in investigations that are to follow in the future, so it is important we have an awareness as the scene develops and unfolds.
This module is very much a hands on session and is intended to give those people an introduction to Automotive Cybersecurity or for those who are already practicing Automotive Cyber Security to gain further experience.
