Modern vehicles are increasingly interconnected through various communication channels, which requires secure access for authorized users, the protection of driver assistance and autonomous driving system data, and the assurance of data integrity against misuse or manipulation. While these advancements offer numerous benefits, recent years have exposed many intrusion incidents, revealing vulnerabilities and weaknesses in current systems. To sustain and enhance the performance, quality, and reliability of vehicle systems, software engineers face significant challenges, including in diverse communication channels, software integration, complex testing, compatibility, core reusability, safety and reliability assurance, data privacy, and software security. Addressing cybersecurity risks presents a substantial challenge in finding practical solutions to these issues. This study aims to analyze the current state of research regarding automotive cybersecurity, with a particular focus on four main themes: frameworks and technologies, standards and regulations, monitoring and vulnerability management, and testing and validation. This paper highlights key findings, identifies existing research gaps, and proposes directions for future research that will be useful for both researchers and practitioners.
