CARAMEL: Artificial Intelligence-based Cybersecurity for Connected and Automated Vehicles

The damaging effects of cyberattacks on the Cooperative Connected and Automated Mobility (CCAM) industry can be tremendous, causing increased denial of customers to adopt CCAM, loss of working hours, material damages, increased environmental pollution and great danger for human lives. Several new technological dimensions like 5G, autopilots, and smart charging of Electric Vehicles (EVs) add to the cybersecurity gaps in future mobility.

CARAMEL’s goal is to proactively address modern vehicle cybersecurity challenges applying advanced Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) techniques and also to continuously seek methods to mitigate associated safety risks. To address cybersecurity considerations for autonomous and connected vehicles, methodologies from the ICT sector will be adopted, allowing to assess vulnerabilities and potential cyber attack impacts.
