connected cars give rise to security challenges that must be addressed by the car manufacturers -

As the new cars will mostly be equipped with communication technology in early 2020, NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) has come up with a rule connected car project by the end of the year. Despite the advantage of reducing road accidents by 30 000 in the United States itself every year the technology is prone to data security and privacy issues.

A group of car manufacturers such as Ford Motor, General Motors, Nissan Motor, Mazda Motor Corp., Honda Motor, Volkswagen Audi, Daimler AG Mercedes Benz and Hyundai Motor with Kia Motors is needed to reach the proof of concept for the management system of security credentials in August next year. The idea is to use PKI (Public Key Infrastructure) for two vehicles to communicate with each other and exchange data. The system will need to evolve for 0 million or more vehicles, while maintaining the privacy of the driver and repel pirates.

will PKI encryption and pairs of numeric keys for encoding and decoding using the messages. The sender uses the private key to sign the message digitally integrating message and information that validates their identity and send them to the receiver. The receiver then uses the public key to verify the digital signature of the sender. This way is also used in online shopping now.

As the benefits of connected cars are more than the challenges they have therefore, with advances in technology, eventually the technology outweigh the challenges.
