Gartner® Report – February 2023
Key findings:
- Cybersecurity is an increasing priority for automakers driven by: (1) the growing surface area susceptible to attack caused by rapid penetration of connected vehicles in the market; (2) the increased risk of significant brand and financial damage to automakers with the widening breadth of updatable vehicle functions controlled by software.
- Automakers are developing secure-by-design in-vehicle systems and investing in vehicle security operations centers (VSOCs) to comply with regulatory pressures.
- Automakers need varying levels of external support from specialist consultancies and technology providers to build out the VSOC and associated playbooks.
