Abstract:

Advanced driver assistance systems are advancing at a rapid pace and all major companies started investing in developing
the autonomous vehicles. But the security and reliability is still uncertain and debatable. Imagine that a
vehicle is compromised by the attackers and then what they can do. An attacker can control brake, accelerate and
even steering which can lead to catastrophic consequences. This paper gives a very short and brief overview of most
of the possible attacks on autonomous vehicle software and hardware and their potential implications.

TL;DR: possible attacks on connected autonomous vehicles
