Building Axis Motors' vehicle cybersecurity program after last year's fleet-wide vulnerability disclosure, when OTA packages travelled unsigned, every vehicle of a model shared one backend API key and weeks of internal debate passed before the type-approval authority was told; the vehicle security funnel drawn as a road narrowing to the horizon — regulatory baseline under R155, R156 and ISO/SAE 21434, threat analysis with real attack paths, a filtering gateway and signed firmware, an SBOM for every ECU, OTA and backend, the vehicle SOC, incident response and type approval — proven for the vehicle's whole life on the road; and the fleet view, where diagnostic authentication failures invisible in any single car show up as one coordinated pattern across 80,000 vehicles.

Connected Vehicle & Automotive Security Program — The Vehicle Security Funnel

A senior-level, standards-driven course that builds and runs a vehicle manufacturer's cybersecurity program end to end. Work the vehicle security funnel - eight stages: Regulatory & Standards Baseline, Vehicle Threat Analysis (TARA), Secure Architecture & Networks, Secure Development & Supply Chain, Over-the-Air & Backend Security, Vehicle SOC & Monitoring, Incident & Vulnerability Response, and Compliance & Type Approval - from UN R155/R156 and ISO/SAE 21434 baseline through TARA, hardened E/E architecture, supply-chain assurance, signed OTA, fleet monitoring, safety-first response, and a defensible type-approval case. Four hands-on activities in every lesson.

What you'll learn

Build and certify a CSMS and SUMS baseline grounded in UN R155/R156, ISO/SAE 21434, and ISO 24089.
Run a rigorous TARA and design a hardened, zonal vehicle E/E architecture with segmented networks, secure boot, HSMs, and controlled diagnostics.
Secure ECU development, the tier-1/2 supply chain, OTA update packages and campaigns, and the backend/cloud platform and its APIs.
Run a vehicle SOC at fleet scale, respond to vehicle vulnerabilities safety-first, and assemble a defensible CSMS and vehicle-type compliance case.
