Abstract Connected vehicles are a next-generation technology in vehicles and in infrastructure that will make travel safer, cleaner, and more efficient. The advanced wireless technology enables vehicles to share and communicate information with each other and their surroundings in real time, which will help to reduce crashes, congestion, and greenhouse gas emissions. However, as our cars become more connected (to the Internet, to wireless networks, with each other, and with our infrastructure), the risk of cyber-attacks is a growing concern. The U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) understands the threat against the nation’s cyber infrastructure and has made cybersecurity a top priority. The Department is taking action to respond to the threat and improve the vehicle cybersecurity posture and capabilities of the United States.
