The complexity of vehicle cybersecurity seems to be increasing at an ever-accelerating pace. With the electrification of transportation, the adoption of AI, and new regulations and standards, “secure by design” seems to be moving out of reach. How can we navigate this complex realm and make actual progress? What does the industry need to focus on? What can academia do to help advance the state of the possible? Join us as we explore some answers to these important questions.
