Abstract

Today’s automotive industry is changing rapidly. The slow movement toward electric mobility and highly technical assistant systems challenge old hierarchies. Another innovation associated with the latter is that cars now receive regular software updates, just like smartphones. Tesla even claims to be able to upgrade their cars to fully autonomous driving in the future. This could lead to an unsustainable and risky development of IT security and the environmental performance of the vehicle sector.
