To get started on managing the risks surrounding your CV projects, we recommend using the Cybersecurity Framework (CSF), published by the National Institute of Standards and Technology. It helps you understand the threat surface, inventory your assets and assign a risk level to their loss — quantitatively and qualitatively ...
The implementation of connected vehicles has increased exponentially the possibility of unauthorized access to both ITS and IT networks. Agencies and related organizations that are deploying connected vehicle (CV) infrastructure face a multitude of new vulnerabilities. Here's HNTB's take on where those threats lie and how transportation agencies can begin addressing them ...
In the next 10 years, as consumers move from vehicle ownership to vehicle usage, 48 percent of consumers surveyed say that a vehicle's brand would not matter as long as the vehicle is cost effective and convenient to access, according to Automotive 2030: Racing toward a digital future, IBM's new study on the future of the auto industry ...
More than half of Americans believe they are familiar with or knowledgeable about autonomous vehicles, according to a new HNTB survey — 58 percent believe they will be commonplace on America’s streets and highways within 10 years. In addition, 57 percent of this group are willing to ride in them, and slightly more than half believe they are safer than people-driven vehicles ...
Safety awareness is on the rise in downtown Tampa, as one of the first connected vehicle pilots is well underway. The Tampa Hillsborough Expressway Authority (THEA) began its project in 2015 as one of three participants in the US Department of Transportation's Connected Vehicle Pilot. Data collection started last spring, and early results are positive. The team has learned important lessons about what can be accomplished with a limited number of vehicle participants and the current state of GPS accuracy and timeliness ...
America's Transportation Infrastructure Act of 2019, a major surface transportation reauthorization bill, was introduced to the US Senate by Senator John Barrasso (R-WY) and Senator Tom Carper (D-DE), making a $287 billion investment in upgrading America’s roads, highways and bridges ...
As energy companies, automakers, and other stakeholders seek innovative, low carbon solutions for transportation, an emerging Energy Cloud transportation-to-grid (T2G) platform represents the nexus of accelerated transformation for the energy and transportation industries ...
The automotive industry is about to enter a “profit desert” as it contends, simultaneously and for an extended period of time, with massive spending on connected, autonomous, shared and electric vehicles, particularly for electric and autonomous vehicles, and with stagnation in key markets globally, including the US, according to new research from AlixPartners ...
As connected vehicle applications exchange information among vehicles, roadway infrastructure, traffic management centers, and wireless mobile devices, a security system is needed to ensure that users can trust in the validity of information received from other system users ...
A side-by-side comparison of connected vehicle technology at 85 traffic signals in the Tuscaloosa, AL area showed that latency in delivering safety messages from roadside units (RSUs) to vehicles via dedicated short range radios (DSRC) and LTE cellular (C-V2N) was “approximately equivalent,” according to a study by the University of Alabama ...
