Cybersecurity concerns roll into the roadways as transportation vehicles become more high-tech and computerized.<\/strong><\/p>\n

* By Fiona Soltes *<\/em><\/p>\n

As the journey toward connectivity, mobility, new technology and the Internet of Things continues to gather speed, it can be tempting to accelerate the search for solutions at the same time. This especially can be the case when it comes to the increasing risks of cybersecurity. Much has been made of how increased tech in transportation trucks and autos can equate to increased vulnerabilities for companies and drivers.<\/p>\n

But hit those brakes before rushing in blindly and incorporating a \u201csolution\u201d to a perceived and\/or anticipated transportation cybersecurity threat: Though the risks of hacking are real, the threat can be mitigated in a variety of ways. Finding and installing the right platform or software can help, but so can working toward a greater understanding of what such solutions actually do, how behavior can be modified, and what hacking might really entail.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think there is still a misconception out there that when you get into your car to drive home from work later today you might fall prey to a massive and coordinated vehicle cyberattack, in which a rogue state threatens to hold you and your vehicle ransom unless you meet their demands,\u201d said Adam Boulton, chief technology officer, BlackBerry Technology Solutions. \u201cWhile an instance such as this could, in theory, happen, its plausibility of occurring is much weaker.\u201d<\/p>\n

So let\u2019s separate fiction from reality. Hollywood movies, Boulton noted, are good at exaggerating what\u2019s possible; imagine, for example, an \u201cinstant and entire compromise of fleets that undermines all safety systems in cars.\u201d<\/p>\n

The biggest threats, however, may be much more simple.<\/p>\n

Ryan Webber, global director of enterprise mobility for integrated mobility and Internet of Things solutions provider and MHI member SOTI, said it\u2019s increasingly common for vehicles in the transportation and logistics space to have mounted tablets; with slim industry margins, the goal is to ensure drivers are as efficient as possible.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe challenge we\u2019ve found is that a lot of times, people are investing in the technology, but they don\u2019t really have a clear understanding of its intended use,\u201d Webber said. \u201cThat in itself offers up some security risks.\u201d<\/p>\n

These tablets, he said, often include sensitive corporate content. In addition, because of the nature of the job, the drivers may move in and out of more Wi-Fi access areas\u2014and one in three networks is either insecure or carries some sort of security risk.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, he noted\u2014citing a report from TrendMicro\u2014roughly 41 percent of data breaches overall are caused by a lost or stolen device. Hacking and malware accounts for just 25 percent.<\/p>\n
