Groupe PSA has announced a partnership with 6328 Harman International at the Geneva International Motorshow to develop a cyber security strategy that aims to protect its next-generation connected and autonomous vehicles.

Both companies have collaborated over two years on projects such as analysing potential threats and security design. They have also conducted a feasibility study of advanced intrusion detection systems for advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), autonomous and next-generation vehicle network architectures.

Yuval Weisglass, vice president, Harman automotive cybersecurity, said: “To protect semi-autonomous and ADAS systems against various types of cyber threats, now is the time to adopt a security-by-design approach, developing unconventional detection and protection capabilities. We’re honoured that Groupe PSA consistently selects Harman as its cybersecurity partner – a strong testament to Harman’s understanding of the intricate concerns and ultimate cybersecurity solutions required by the automotive industry.”
