A non-profit research consortium dedicated to automotive cyber security, Future of Automotive Security Technology Research (FASTR), has announced the availability of the Automotive Industry Guidelines for Secure Over-the-Air Updates. These guidelines are intended to assist automotive manufacturers and others involved in evaluating platforms for secure updates, describing the threat models, providing recommended cryptographic algorithms and detailing a step-by-step checklist for evaluating state of the art (SOTA) systems.

Founded by Aeris, Intel and Uber in 2016, FASTR seeks to accelerate automotive security by marshalling industry-wide collaboration on crucially needed research.
Craig Hurst, FASTR executive director, said: “Today’s modern automotive ecosystem requires a robust, adaptable approach to maintain the security and integrity of the growing intelligently connected vehicles on the roads. Provenance and operational verification of software components in a forensically sound manner is critical. These guidelines will serve as a comprehensive, objective resource to help OEMs analyse SOTA systems and make wise design choices.”
