Cybersecurity encompasses various domains and targets, making it challenging to generalize the risk. The interconnected nature of everything in cyberspace means that attackers focus primarily on their objectives and exploit the path of least resistance to achieve their goals. I'm your host, Lee Harrison. Today, on Siemens Security By Design podcast, I am joined by David Rogers, a cybersecurity specialist, and CEO of Copper Horse Ltd, a software and security company. In this episode, David provides invaluable insights into the multifaceted world of cybersecurity. He speaks about the challenges associated with securing the automotive industry, particularly in light of vehicles' increasing complexity and connectivity. He also shares the growing need for cybersecurity expertise and collaboration across various domains to effectively address the evolving challenges in securing emerging technologies. In addition, you will hear more about the concept of digital twins and the integration of virtual and real-world elements. What You’ll Learn in this Episode: The vulnerabilities introduced by the integration of legacy technology and the potential for cyber attacks (10:35) The changing dynamics of information sharing in the automotive industry, particularly in the context of cybersecurity (15:56) Man in the Middle Attack (18:39) The necessity for more robust and evolving standards that keep pace with technology (24:05) The future of automotive technology, and the potential for fully autonomous vehicles (32:34) Digital twins and the blending of virtual and real worlds, specifically in the context of sim racing and the use of simulators to train real-world drivers (35:32) Connect with David Rogers LinkedIn Connect with Lee Harrison LinkedIn

In recent years, cybersecurity has become a buzzword in nearly every industry. Companies that have never dealt with a data breach or a cyber threat have started asking, “Why is cybersecurity important?” And the automotive world is not any different from the rest. Cybersecurity has become a fundamental concern for the development of autonomous vehicle (AV) systems, as attacks can have serious consequences. Hello and welcome to the Siemens Security By Design podcast. I'm your host, Lee Harrison. Today, I am joined by Dr. Siraj Shaikh, a professor of Systems Security at Swansea University in Wales, also Director of CyberOwl, a marine security technology provider, and Chair of the cybersecurity stream at the GAAC, the Global Automotive Advisory Council.  In this episode, he will help us understand several important topics related to cybersecurity in the automotive industry, such as the challenges of achieving Level 5 self-driving cars, the importance of security in the industry, and the challenges of integrating cybersecurity into hardware design and development.  You will also hear more about the role of Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools in automating the process of identifying potential threats and the growing interest in cybersecurity among students.  What You’ll Learn in this Episode: The priority of security in the automotive industry (1:54) GAAC's mission to understand the different aspects of security in terms of design, development, and operational features (7:35) The challenges of integrating cybersecurity into hardware design and development. (20:02) The role of Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools in automating the process of identifying potential threats (23:59) The growing interest in cybersecurity among students and the demand for graduates in the market.
