Summary: | The increasing cyber connectivity of
vehicles and between vehicles and infrastructure will
drastically reshape mobility in the coming decades. Although
the advent of connected mobility is expected to benefit
travelers and society by smoothing traffic, improving rider
convenience, and reducing accidents, the augmented cyber
components in connected and autonomous vehicles and related
infrastructure also give rise to cyber attacks on the
transportation system. Yet, little attention has been paid
to transportation cyber resilience. This paper thus proposes
an investigation on this topic with a comprehensive
literature review. Cyber components and plausible autonomous
mobility systems operation scenarios are discussed, before
identifying possible cyber attacks to autonomous mobility
systems at the vehicle and system levels. The discussion
then moves to existing practices to enhance cybersecurity,
and several strategies are investigated toward enhancing
autonomous mobility system cyber resilience. At the vehicle
level, creating layers and separation to reduce cyber
component connectivity and deploying an independent
procedure for data collection and processing are important
in vehicle design and manufacturing. At the system level,
recommended strategies include keeping redundancy in
transportation capacity, maintaining a separate road
network, and deploying different sub-autonomous mobility systems. |
