As the right wing of a bird needs the left to be able to fly, so does the V-model. This is true for the development and the testing of the reliability, safety and performance aspects of the vehicle ecosystems, as well the cybersecurity perspective. In reality, however, project development teams tend to obscure architecture information of the systems under examination from the offensive security experts they hired. Nevertheless, it only supports the real bad guys in their mission of compromising the vehicles, as the fixed budget penetration test can be only as effective as they let it be.
The SOLE Framework of PCAutomotive provides a way to design and validate the product in synergy. It maximizes the cyber resilience for the project budget, while leveraging the extensive engineering and offensive experience of the company.

PRESENTER:
János Kovacs has spent his whole career in the transportation industry so far, working as a test engineer in both ECU manufacturing and software development, then led the testing both from line management and project perspective. From 2019 he is specialized for securing automotive products and on this journey he became the subject matter expert of the E2E automotive cybersecurity lifecycle. As a tutor of his competence area, he created the material of several corporate and university course on testing and cybersecurity and also published an open source „fighting fantasy” game on automotive security. Before PCAutomotive, János participated in the establishment of the cybersecurity team of a German Tier 1 based in Hungary, laying down the basis of ISO 21434, UNECE R155 and (partly) R156 compliance, threat modeling, and product cybersecurity architecture, then designed and implemented the Vulnerability and Incident Management process of a German OEM.
