Integration of Security in the Development Lifecycle of Dependable Automotive CPS

Abstract

The exciting new features, such as advanced driver assistance systems, fleet management systems, and autonomous driving, drive the need for built-in security solutions and architectural designs to mitigate emerging security threats. Thus, cybersecurity joins reliability and safety as a cornerstone for success in the automotive industry. As vehicle providers gear up for cybersecurity challenges, they can capitalize on experiences from many other domains, but nevertheless must face several unique challenges. Therefore, this article focuses on the enhancement of state-of-the-art development lifecycle for automotive cyber-physical systems toward the integration of security, safety and reliability engineering methods. Especially, four engineering approaches (HARA at concept level, FMEA and FTA at design level and HSI at implementation level) are extended to integrate security considerations into the development lifecycle.

Special Characteristics as a Key Factor in Development of a Robust Production Process in the Automotive Industry

“…The detected risks, the reasons for their occurrence, the consequences of the impact of the event, and the defined actions for their elimination or mitigation are loaded in the FMEA document which is available in the master's thesis referenced [1,13].…”

“…For such characteristics there is a necessity for a separate, increased control to be provided. That being said, a critical, key or special characteristic is any of the product or production process characteristics, throughout the entire life cycle, which if not complied with the specifications may cause a defect with serious consequences for the life and limb of the end user, and/or cause noncompliance with the regulatory, and/or functionality of the product and the system [1,13].…”

Measuring trust in automated driving using a multi-level approach to human factors

“…However, the positive benefits are matched by a possible lack of acceptance of the new technology [33], which is related *The work presented in this document has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreements (Omitted for blinded review).

The reduced acceptance level is also correlated to the lack of trust in technical solutions [10] and safety [27].…”
