All the focus is on connected and autonomous vehicle security. However, businesses must concentrate on the foundations, namely the industrial processes used to produce autos and their increasingly sophisticated components. An entire business is at risk when "intelligent industrial devices" are brought online without appropriate cybersecurity. According to a report by the IBM Institute for Business Value (IBV), 87 percent of automakers are using Automotive Internet Of Things technology in factories and assembly lines without adequately assessing the risk or putting sufficient contingencies in place.
Automotive Internet Of Things firms need better cybersecurity tools that can continuously identify, reduce, and avoid risk. These tools should be contextual, cognitive, and adaptive. Companies run the danger of cyberattacks as manufacturing processes and equipment become increasingly automated and intelligent as a result of the use of IIoT technology. Cyber invasions can result in significant equipment damage, loss of vital data and corporate reputation, injury and even death. These incursions can be caused by cyber hackers, rival businesses, rival countries, corporate spies, or even angry workers.
