Summary:
Technological progress in the automotive industryhas led to a surge in computing systems within modern vehicles.
Features such as Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS),
Battery Management Systems (BMS), and infotainment tools
enhance safety and the overall driving experience. However, this
digital expansion has also increased the risk of cyber-attacks,
amplified by mass production, rapid tech adoption, and low user
awareness of cybersecurity threats. As a result, there’s a growing
need to address these vulnerabilities to protect personal data and
maintain road safety.
This paper presents a user-centered cyber threat intelligence
platform that raises awareness of vehicle-specific cybersecurity
risks. Since threats and vulnerabilities differ by manufacturer
and production methods, cybersecurity levels can vary across
vehicle models. To address this, we propose a method for
identifying and assessing the cybersecurity risk of smart vehicles
with the main purpose to inform the public and reduce future
cyber-attacks.
