Description

Secure your connected vehicle ecosystems with this comprehensive self-assessment framework for Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) in automotive cybersecurity. Designed for engineering leads, cybersecurity officers, and compliance managers, this programme delivers actionable insights to strengthen access control across vehicle platforms while meeting stringent global regulatory demands.

This structured curriculum equips your organisation with the tools to systematically evaluate and enhance MFA deployment across technical, operational, and compliance domains. Key outcomes include:

Regulatory alignment: Map MFA controls to ISO/SAE 21434, UNECE WP.29 R155 and R156, and data privacy regimes such as GDPR—ensuring audit-ready documentation for type approval across international markets.
Robust threat modelling: Identify and mitigate critical attack vectors, including relay attacks on BLE and NFC systems, insider threats from dealership networks, and MFA bypass techniques targeting keyless entry and remote start functions.
Secure integration: Implement MFA within vehicle communication architectures using secure message authentication codes (MACs) over CAN FD and Ethernet, enforce authentication at diagnostic gateways (OBD-II), and manage PKI certificate lifecycles in telematics control units.
Operational resilience: Evaluate failure modes, define forensic log retention policies, and integrate MFA risk scenarios into ongoing penetration testing and TARA processes to maintain continuous compliance.

By embedding MFA into the core of your cybersecurity management system (CSMS), your organisation reduces unauthorised access risks, strengthens incident response readiness, and demonstrates due diligence to regulators and stakeholders.

Take control of your automotive cybersecurity posture—conduct a rigorous self-assessment today and future-proof your connected vehicle strategy.
