Cyber-security as an attribute of active safety systems and their migration towards vehicle automation

摘要

Active safety systems are perceived as enablers for reducing road fatalities significantly, as they can improve the vehicle performance in critical situations where the driver may not otherwise be able to react in time. These systems are showcasing higher degrees of automation, which make them ideal candidates for migration to full autonomy. This paper presents challenges in the design of active safety systems with an emphasis on addressing safety and cyber-security concerns.
