Calls for Better Electronic Security for Automobiles

This is a welcomed development: a grass-roots pro-cyber-security organization named I Am the Cavalry Group challenges automakers to step up their game in auto cyber-security.

They even have a 5-Star Safety Program:

• Safety by design
• Third Party Collaboration
• Evidence Capture
• Security Updates
• Segmentation and Isolation

Will automakers respond to this challenge? Will it complement or even spur on their current efforts to share intelligence on security threats? Right now, I guess we will have to wait and see.
