Impact of Factors Influencing Cyber Threats on Autonomous Vehicles

, ORCID Icon, , &
 

ABSTRACT

Advanced Technologies are transforming the Automotive industry and the pace of innovation is accelerating at a breakneck speed. Autonomous Vehicles (AVs) incorporate many different systems and technologies and their increased computer functionality and connectivity lead to enormous cybersecurity risk. The aim of this research is to explore the significant factors that influence cyber threats on AVs and to examine their level of importance.

Partial Least Squares path modeling was preferred for research studies for its flexible modeling and identifying key drivers. The data analysis was carried out using ADANCO 2.0. to develop and evaluate the structural model and the causal relationships between the variables.

Correlation of in-vehicular network vulnerabilities with trust and the correlation between the “workload of the driverless system” with cyber-attacks and cyber threats to AVs are two relations but have not been touched upon in previous studies. In this research, a modified framework is proposed based on the Cyber Cycle and integrated model of Diamond Model of Intrusion Analysis with the Active Cyber Defense Cycle.
