Dr. McNair is on a team for a new NSF project entitled, “An Integrative Hands-on Approach to Vehicular Security Education.” It’s goal is to develop technology and materials to help the broader community comprehend the cybersecurity challenges in autonomous vehicles. Attack targets on autonomous vehicles are diverse and numerous, and include sensors, hardware, software, vision, and ML components. A key aspect of the project will be the development of a variety of exploration platforms and self-paced training modules to help the community (safely) explore how hackers can get into vehicles and comprehend how to employ cybersecurity defenses to protect vehicles against those attacks.
