Autonomous and connected vehicles utilize smart components and programming for communication, attracting entrepreneurs for innovation, but also face cybersecurity threats.
Autonomous and connected vehicles are a collection of smart components such as sensors, Radar/Lidar, Electronic Control Units (ECUs), and cameras programmed through voluminous lines of codes, which enable a seamless communication system between the user, vehicle, and infrastructure. The concept of autonomous vehicles is gaining significant traction in the global markets, generating higher revenues, and witnessing high market penetration, thus attracting entrepreneurs to make new and disruptive innovations. However, the underlying technology and communication system of autonomous and connected vehicles are prone to the cybersecurity threats, which circumvent any product that uses sensors, transmits data over the network, and can be controlled through a remote computer or a mobile application. In this article, we attempt to outline the concerns that an aspiring entrepreneur should be aware of before entering into the autonomous vehicle industry, followed by innovative recommendations that can guide addressing the article's issues. The presented recommendations and guidelines are based on the cybersecurity principles of confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
