From Garage to Gateway: Introduction to Assessing the Security of Automotive IoT Gateways
This article focuses on the security assessment of automotive IoT gateways, uncovering vulnerabilities and risks. Through hands-on experimentation, we explore the gateway's role in vehicle communication, analyze potential weaknesses, and evaluate the effectiveness of security measures. By addressing these security concerns, we pave the way for more robust and secure automotive IoT systems. In the realm of the automotive industry, where the rubber hits the road, so do the risks. As our vehicles become less "horseless carriage" and more "mobile IoT device," security considerations shift gears from simply keeping your physical car secure, to securing a moving piece of the Internet of Things. The roadways have become the information superhighway. So, buckle up, dear readers, because today we're diving under the hood of the automotive IoT gateway's security.
