The future of cyber-security in connected and autonomous mobility analysed by WMG
The Cyber Security for Connected and Autonomous Mobility (CAM) has been investigated in a series of projects funded by the Centre for Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CCAV) and supported by Zenzic and InnovateUK (part of UKRI). Out of Seven projects, WMG, at the University of Warwick was involved in three: Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNT) Cyber Resilience: a Lab2Live Observer Based Approach, ResiCAV and BeARCAT
New ways to stop caller ID spoofing to be investigated
Fraudsters regularly use a fabricated caller ID to look like they are calling from a trusted source to convince people over the phone to hand over money. The current solution, which the Federal Communications Commission is urging telecom providers in the US to adopt, requires a globally trusted authority, but such authority is difficult to manage. Researchers at the University of Warwick will find new ways to tackle this problem without requiring trusted authorities or modifying the existing telecommunication infrastructure, thanks to a grant from the EPSRC.
