Cybersecurity One Day Workshop with IPTIF Collaboration

Course Description

Automotive Cybersecurity Workshop (1 Day – 8 Hours)

As vehicles become increasingly connected and software-defined, cybersecurity is no longer optional — it’s a regulatory and engineering imperative. This intensive 1-day workshop equips automotive engineers, ECU developers, and embedded systems professionals with the essential knowledge and hands-on skills to understand, assess, and address cybersecurity threats in modern vehicles.

What You Will Learn

Morning Session

Foundations of Automotive Cybersecurity Explore why today’s connected vehicles are vulnerable, understand key attack surfaces (In-Vehicle Networks, Telematics, Infotainment, OBD), and learn from real-world cyberattack case studies.

Automotive Cybersecurity Standards & Regulations Get a practical introduction to ISO/SAE 21434 and UNECE WP.29 R155 & R156, Cybersecurity Management Systems (CSMS), and the responsibilities of OEMs and suppliers.

Afternoon Session

Secure ECU & Communication Concepts Understand Secure Boot, Hardware Security Modules (HSM), cryptography fundamentals, UDS Security Access, and Intrusion Detection Systems.

Threat Analysis & Risk Assessment (TARA) Learn how to identify assets, create threat scenarios, rate attack feasibility, and develop risk mitigation plans through a hands-on case study activity.

Cybersecurity Testing & Validation Gain exposure to ECU penetration testing, fuzz testing, CAN bus sniffing, replay attacks, and live demo of CAN traffic monitoring and message injection.
