Establishes Automotive Security Review
Board;
Unveils Automotive Cybersecurity Best
Practices
To help mitigate cybersecurity risks associated with connected
automobiles while encouraging technological progression and
innovation, Intel Corporation today announced the establishment of
the Automotive Security Review Board (ASRB). The board will
encompass top security industry talent across the globe with
particular areas of expertise in cyber-physical systems. The ASRB
researchers will perform ongoing security tests and audits intended
to codify best practices and design recommendations for advanced
cybersecurity solutions and products to benefit the automobile
industry and drivers. Intel also published the first version of its
automotive cybersecurity best practices white paper, which the
company will continue to update based on ASRB findings.
Gartner predicts that “by 2020, the number of connected
passenger vehicles on the road in use will be about 150 million;
60% to 75% of them will be capable of consuming, creating and
sharing Web-based data.”1 The transition to a more connected world
is exciting and requires that cybersecurity be addressed.
“We can, and must, raise the bar against cyberattacks in
automobiles,” said Chris Young, senior vice president and general
manager of Intel Security. “With the help of the ASRB, Intel can
establish security best practices and encourage that cybersecurity
is an essential ingredient in the design of every connected car.
Few things are more personal than our safety while on the road,
making the ASRB the right idea at the right time.”
Intel will provide the ASRB with its automotive advanced
development platforms on which to conduct research. Findings will
then be published publicly as part of an ongoing process. To
motivate the ASRB researchers, Intel will award a new car2 to the
member who provides the most significant and impactful
cybersecurity contribution that can be implemented on Intel’s
automotive platform. All details related to the Intel development
platform and areas of security audit focus will be provided at the
inaugural ASRB meet-up next month. Interested security
professionals wishing to request participation can find out more
information at www.intel.com/automotive/asrb.
The new Intel white paper “Automotive Security Best Practices:
Recommendations for Security and Privacy in the Era of the
Next-Generation Car,” analyzes risks associated with the next
generation of connected automobiles and provides specific security
recommendations for the automotive industry. Intel is inviting
industry experts to comment on the white paper and will publish
revisions based upon feedback and ASRB findings. The full report is
available online at www.mcafee.com/autosecuritywp.
