Abstract
In light of the increasing adoption of autonomous vehicles in our transportation networks, it is crucial to emphasize the significance of implementing strong cybersecurity protocols. These self-driving cars, which heavily depend on state-of-the-art sensors, artificial intelligence (AI), and complex communication networks, represent a remarkable advancement in technology. However, they also bring about new vulnerabilities. While it is true that autonomous vehicles have been shown to be statistically safer than traditional cars, it is important to acknowledge the growing concern surrounding cyber threats and their potential impact on the safety and reliability of these vehicles. This paper provides a thorough examination of the cybersecurity issues that driverless cars encounter. It delves into the current risks and upcoming threats that have been identified between 2023 and 2024. The increasing threat of cyber-attacks on vehicles has raised significant safety concerns. Hackers are exploiting various vulnerabilities to compromise vehicle systems, gain access to personal information, and undermine overall security. This paper seeks to enhance comprehension of the pressing requirement for robust cybersecurity frameworks to protect vehicles from evolving threats. It accomplishes this by conducting a thorough examination of potential attacks, bolstered by relevant data and real-world illustrations.
