WHY THIS VIDEO COURSE IS IMPORTANT

Learn about Automotive Cybersecurity Best Practices and principles to save time and money while improving quality.

Understanding the key principles and best practices of automotive cybersecurity is essential to properly implement cybersecurity in the development of automotive products and components

Therefore, this course summarises proven cybersecurity mechanisms and practices in a crash course that will effectively support automotive developers not only in terms of security, but also in terms of quality and efficiency. You will learn not only why best practices make sense, but also when they should be adapted or challenged to ensure maximum security.

This course covers the following topics:

  • Proven best practices and their benefits: Learn how best practices generally increase the security level of vehicles and understand cybersecurity outside the vehicle, including production and back-end.


  • Introduction to some cybersecurity concepts and mechanisms: Learn about the key principles in this short introduction: From 'Defence in Depth' to 'Principle of Least Privilege' and 'Cybersecurity by Design', you will understand how these principles can be applied throughout the development process.


  • Consequences of applying or not applying best practices: Understand the benefits of applying best practices in a meaningful way and the risks of rejecting or incorrectly implementing them.


This course will provide you with an understanding of the basic best practices for improving the automotive cybersecurity of your products with a view to implementing security mechanisms to reduce cyber risks.

Automotive Cybersecurity Best Practices & key principles for implementing cybersecurity video course content

General Introduction to Automotive Cybersecurity Best Practices

The course begins with an introduction to what is meant by applied automotive cybersecurity best practices in vehicle development. You will learn how established best practices in connected vehicle product development can add real added value in terms of risk mitigation and efficiency.

Introduction to the "Cybersecurity by Design" concept 

While there is a widespread misconception, not only in the automotive industry but in general, that aspects of cybersecurity can be treated as a secondary issue or add-on, the 'Cybersecurity by Design' principle establishes the consideration of cybersecurity throughout the entire product development lifecycle. This is also recommended by ISO/SAE 21434.

Introduction to the concept of "Defense-in-depth"

In this section you will learn about the multi-layered security concept of 'Defense-in-depth' - comparable to the layers of an onion - and how this approach can help to increase the level of protection of a component in the event of an attack and reduce cyber risks.

Overview of other automotive cybersecurity concepts/best practices

A quick run-through of other cybersecurity concepts and key principles that should be applied when creating automotive products. From minimising the attack surface to secure default standards, fail security, etc

Incorporating cybersecurity inside and outside the vehicle

We are about to learn how the implementation of cybersecurity for components used in vehicles is not only about protecting the ECU, but about the complexity of the cybersecurity requirements in the vehicle and in relation to the production line and the backend.

Application and non-application of cybersecurity best practices and summary

In this overview, we discuss in more detail the extent to which the application or non-application of established best practices can have certain advantages and disadvantages. In addition, we provide ideas on what to consider when dealing with best practices.

Introduction to the "Principle of Least Privilege" concept

This section provides an overview of the 'Principle of Least Privilege', which is particularly relevant in the automotive context, where there is a high risk of unauthorised access to system functions - an example scenario of how a PoLP attack might look is presented.
For Developers, Engineers and Cybersecurity Engineers in Vehicle Development

This course is aimed at developers and engineers who want to learn the key principles and best practices of automotive cybersecurity in order to increase their security know-how and reduce risks in development projects or to ensure a higher level of security in vehicles (products) - while increasing the quality and efficiency of their implementation work. You will learn best practices and understand when and how to apply them.

For Project Managers, Security and Systems Architects


The course is also suitable for project managers and decision makers responsible for risk management and security enforcement in vehicle development. Gain a general understanding of established principles for implementing cybersecurity mechanisms in vehicle development and learn how best practices can help reduce risk and improve product development quality and efficiency.
