Imagine your car being hacked. It can happen more easily than you think. This is where the Israeli startup ‘Argus Cyber Security’ comes into play.
Argus Cyber Security, a world leader in automotive cyber security, today announced that it is collaborating with Microsoft to build a next-generation, end-to-end platform for automotive and mobility security. Founded in 2014, Argus is headquartered in Israel, with offices in the USA, Germany, France, Japan, and Korea.
In recent years, vehicle manufacturers have come to realize the importance of Software Defined Vehicles (SDV) and integrating security measures early in the development process. This “shift left” security approach enables automotive software developers to improve the overall quality and security of their products, while at the same time accelerating time-to-market and reducing development costs.
The next-generation Argus Vehicle Security Platform embraces “shift left” principles to help OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers address the complex challenges in developing and securing connected software-defined vehicles (SDVs), as well as ensuring data management, and compliance. It comprises two integrated solutions built to help automakers secure the future of mobility: Automotive Shift-Left Security and Automotive Security Lifecycle Management.
“Microsoft’s vision, together with Argus’ automotive cybersecurity expertise and product offerings, will help expedite the transformation of the automotive software development cycle,” said Ran Ish-Shalom, VP Products and Strategy at Argus. “This collaboration focuses on building new, cutting-edge security and development platforms to meet the evolving security, data management and compliance requirements of automakers in the years to come.“
Maybe this will make future cars even safer. Or you can drive a classic car. It can’t be hacked. It just doesn’t have any chips. Just an honest car.
