In today's fast-paced, interconnected world, the automotive industry stands at the forefront of technological innovation. Modern vehicles are no longer just mechanical marvels; they have evolved into rolling computers on wheels. This transformation has not only revolutionized the driving experience but has also introduced new challenges and vulnerabilities, chief among them being automotive cybersecurity. The Mechanical Era The roots of the automotive industry trace back to the late 19th century, with pioneers like Karl Benz and Henry Ford introducing the world to the marvels of the motor vehicle. In these early days, cars were purely mechanical contraptions, devoid of any digital components. The idea of a "car hack" was inconceivable as there were no computers or electronic control units (ECUs) to compromise. The Emergence of Digital Control The 20th century brought about a pivotal shift as automotive engineers began incorporating electronic systems for improved performance, safety, and comfort. The introduction of the Engine Control Unit (ECU) marked a significant milestone. ECUs allowed for more precise control over engine functions, optimizing fuel efficiency and emissions. As digital technology became more pervasive, ECUs multiplied and evolved to control various aspects of the vehicle, from anti-lock brakes to airbags. Vehicles were becoming increasingly reliant on software and electronic components. This shift enhanced vehicle performance and opened the door to exciting new features, but it also laid the groundwork for cybersecurity concerns. The First Signs of Vulnerability In the early 21st century, automotive cybersecurity entered the public consciousness. Researchers began uncovering vulnerabilities in vehicles' digital systems. The emergence of keyless entry systems and wireless tire pressure monitoring systems raised concerns. These convenience features, while enhancing the driving experience, also presented opportunities for malicious actors to exploit wireless communications. In 2010, researchers demonstrated the remote hijacking of a car's systems, a watershed moment that alerted the industry to the looming threats. It was a wake-up call for manufacturers to recognize that cars, like any other connected devices, could be hacked. Industry Response and Regulations As the threat landscape evolved, the automotive industry mobilized to address cybersecurity concerns. Manufacturers started implementing security measures in their vehicles, and organizations such as the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) began developing standards for automotive cybersecurity. These standards aimed to guide manufacturers in securing their vehicles against potential threats.

Industries, regulators, and consumers alike see cybersecurity as an ongoing challenge in our digital world. Protecting and defending computer assets against malicious attacks is a part of our everyday lives. From personal computing devices to online financial transactions to sensitive healthcare data, cyber crimes can affect anyone. As technology becomes more deeply embedded into cars in general, securing the global automotive infrastructure from cybercriminals who want to steal data and take control of automated systems for malicious purposes becomes a top priority for the industry. Systems and components that govern safety must be protected from harmful attacks, unauthorized access, damage, or anything else that might interfere with safety functions. Automotive Cybersecurity: An Introduction to ISO/SAE 21434 provides readers with an overview of the standard developed to help manufacturers keep up with changing technology and cyber-attack methods. ISO/SAE 21434 presents a comprehensive cybersecurity tool that addresses all the needs and challenges at a global level. Industry experts, David Ward and Paul Wooderson, break down the complex topic to just what you need to know to get started including a chapter dedicated to frequently asked questions. Topics include defining cybersecurity, understanding cybersecurity as it applies to automotive cyber-physical systems, establishing a cybersecurity process for your company, and explaining assurances and certification.
