-There will be a lot to do for the cybersecurity and privacy community in the future.

 

The EARPA Conference 2017 debated the future of travel and how mobility systems may be designed. It was discussed how concepts like “MaaS” – Mobility as a Service and “DaaS” – Delivery as a Service, will affect the automotive and transport sector. The development of MaaS and DaaS goes hand in hand with the digitalization and the connected society.

There is a desire that changes based on updated existing and upcoming service and service solutions are user centric. The ICT impact is large and several participants stressed the ongoing digital tsunami, where MaaS and DaaS are strong driving forces.

But what the conference did not debate was that all data will be logged, transferred and saved. Therefore, this will still be the future risk that we must be able to manage in a personally integrity and socially secure manner for many years. From that perspective, cybersecurity remains a sore toe.

 

EARPA is the association of automotive R&D organisations, which brings together 55 independent R&D providers in the automotive sector throughout Europe.
