As vehicles become increasingly connected and software-defined, ensuring cybersecurity is no longer optional—it’s essential for safety, compliance, and trust. This presentation outlines a comprehensive approach to automotive cybersecurity, covering the full lifecycle from regulatory compliance and risk analysis to secure architecture design, penetration testing, and real-time threat response. Drawing on experience and solutions from Thales, the talk highlights how to build cyber regulations-compliant policies, implement secure hardware like embedded secure elements, and manage credentials across complex automotive infrastructures. Attendees will also gain insight into how to assess and strengthen system security through penetration testing and enable continuous protection with advanced Detect and Respond capabilities.

In this session, you will learn:

• How to align vehicle cybersecurity with evolving regulations through policy design and risk assessment
• How to build robust, secure system architectures—including secure hardware and key management
• How to combine penetration testing and real-time threat detection to continuously validate and improve security posture
