Given
the increasing level of digitization of automotive transportation systems, new
opportunities to enable greater functionality and capabilities to these
vehicular platforms are emerging, including the enhancement of driver safety
and supporting semi- and fully-autonomous driving.
Furthermore, in recent
years there has been a significant effort to connect these vehicles with each
other and nearby information infrastructure. Nevertheless, there are
numerous technical challenges in order to make these vehicular systems reliable
and safe, especially when it comes to security and privacy.
Specifically,
with vehicular systems becoming increasingly dependent on digital hardware,
electronic sensors, and wireless/wired connectivity within the vehicle as well
as with other vehicles and nearby information infrastructure, the demand to
secure these systems is becoming vitally important.
The
objective of this special issue is to present the latest insights,
results/findings, and perspectives on the emerging and increasingly important
area of vehicular security and privacy. Vehicular security and privacy
researchers from industry, government, and academia are encouraged to submit their
latest research findings to this special issue.
We are soliciting original
contributions that have not been published and are not currently under
consideration by any other journals. The topics of interest include, but are
not limited to:
- Secure vehicular communications
- Vehicular networking security
- Vehicular hardware security
- Privacy and data protection issues in vehicular settings
- Security of open vehicle application platforms
- Vehicle cyber intrusion detection systems and incident
response
- Vehicular sensor security
- Spectrum sensing data falsification and countermeasures
- Vehicular privacy
