The automotive industry is undergoing rapid transformation. In the past, manufacturers simply produced cars. Today, they produce smart vehicles. As cars have evolved into intelligent machines that can communicate with each other, manufacturers must also consider software and provide regular updates.
Modern cars produce and collect data such as GPS positions, mileage, and driving behavior. As a result, the automotive industry must ensure that this data is secured and protected as well as comply with general data protection rules such as GDPR and other industry-specific regulations such as WP.29 and TISAX.
These levels of security also apply and affect suppliers and service providers within the supply chain of the automotive industry. As the car, its parts, manufacturers and related services become more connected, the number of vulnerabilities and potential security and threat vectors increases. In addition, as products become smarter, so does production.
Cybersecurity solutions need to protect and secure the supply chain as well as all smart devices which are involved in the manufacturing process. More information about supply chain security can be found here.
Organizations need to implement cybersecurity measures at each stage to protect data. It must be protected not only where it is stored, but also when it is generated, shared, and processed.
Utimaco provides a wide range of data security solutions from Hardware Security Modules, to file encryption to key injection to secure and protect data at every stage of the automotive manufacturing industry.
Applications for on-premise Data Security for Automotive
Software-based File and Folder Encryption
Reliable data encryption at the file and folder level to protect data against unauthorized access and to fulfill data protection regulations.
Key Management
Sensitive data must not only be encrypted, but also kept secure while in motion, in use, or at rest. Reap the benefits of properly managing your encryption keys.
Secure File Sharing
Enables secure but easy-to-manage data sharing with third parties without running the risk of data interception.
Post Quantum Cryptography
Strong, quantum-resistant lattice-based and stateful hash-based cryptographic algorithms for encryption and digital signature use cases.
General Purpose Hardware Security Modules
Enables key generation, storage, and exchange. Addresses various performance levels and physical security requirements while fulfilling compliance and regulatory mandates.
Tokenization
Replacing sensitive data with non-sensitive tokens to enable secure business operations without sharing sensitive information.
Code Signing
With code signing, organizations can prove that their software is trustworthy and end users can, in turn, verify the authenticity of files and program code.
Document Signing
Ensures the security and integrity of digital signatures, preventing unauthorized access or tampering of digital documents.
