Modern automobiles are complex systems, interacting with their passengers, the environment, infrastructure and each other in robust and subtle ways. Nearly every system in a modern vehicle is computerized, and the complexity and degree of interaction of these systems continues to dramatically increase. That’s why automotive cybersecurity is a crucial, multi-faceted topic with factors common to traditional IT security as well as a variety of automotive-specific elements.
escar USA encourages collaboration among leaders in the auto cybersecurity community – industry, academia, government – to discuss and address any elements related to the evolving world of vehicle cybersecurity. And that’s what we have in store for you this year with our impressive line-up of speakers.
We hope you enjoy the program and networking opportunities, especially our evening reception, and don’t forget to visit our exhibitors in the Garden Gallery, just outside the Grande Ballroom.
