The United Nations has introduced automatic driving safety standards, but why is it led by Germany and Japan?

According to Taiwan Media on August 23, in order to prevent hackers from attacking the communication network used by the autopilot system, the UN agency responsible for formulating international regulations for automobiles will pass the auto driving safety standard in November this year. According to the report, this standard is dominated by Japan and Germany, which are leaders in the development of autopilot technology. They mainly include measures to stop hackers from attacking and detect drivers when they are detected and prevent them from losing control.

1. Does the United Nations lead the work?

Car network security is different from internet network security. We are well aware of it. With the rapid development of the intelligent hardware industry, the car networking has entered the second stage, and more intelligent vehicle-mounted devices are gradually appearing in our sights, among which the mobile internet interaction is one of the important functions. According to actual data, about 150 million vehicles maintained in the global market in 2015 can achieve interconnection with other things or virtual networks (including Internet, WIFI, Bluetooth, etc.) other than themselves.

The main reason for the insecurity of automotive networks is that CAN (Controller Area Network Bus) is difficult to implement, which involves two problems that are still difficult to solve. At one time, because of the lack of calculation and processing capabilities of ECUs (on-board computers), there is a shortage of intelligent algorithm capabilities. Second, there is insufficient bandwidth support for automotive networks, and the demand for efficient data transmission speeds is difficult to meet. The autopilot system's reliance on bandwidth will be higher, it will be possible to form a telling vehicle network environment, combined with the sensor and processor performance to ensure that the system can receive environmental information and respond quickly.

Since there are currently no effective protective measures against automobile network security, various countries have controversies on the auto driving safety standards. What's more, the protection of car networks is extremely difficult. It is not a simple car manufacturer, but also a car network security. Threats are linked to terrorist attacks, espionage, cybercrime and threats to social security. Because of the different national conditions in different countries, it is obviously easier for the United Nations to take over the management and propose a plan, which will make it easier for the world to accept it. It is also easy for them to follow relevant rules and regulations in future.

2. Security standards to build the right to speak, competing against each other?

As early as January of this year, Japan and Germany jointly proposed this plan to the United Nations and called for the establishment of an international safety benchmark for autonomous driving. Looking at the standards development process for automobile network security under various countries in the map, Japan, Europe, and the United States have already kept a reserve of automotive network security. The concepts proposed by Japan and Germany are all toward information security, while the United States is paying more attention to Automated manufacturing, construction, and communications, while the Chinese market has a tolerant attitude towards autonomous driving, but there are no excessive restrictions and concerns in the formulation of disputes and safety standards compared to the three countries mentioned above.

As we all know, the United States, Germany, and Japan all have high-caliber large-scale car manufacturers. Why is the United States having technology giants such as Google and Tesla? The earliest research and development of autonomous driving is still not on the leading list? Because the United States has related independent standards in this regard, in January 2015, members of the Diet, Edward Markey and Richard Blumenthal, submitted a new legislative proposal to the Senate: the SPY Car Act. This future legislation will Instruct NHTSA (United States Highway Traffic Safety Administration) and FTC (Federal Trade Commission) to establish federal standards to protect the safety of connected cars.

Although China is currently the world's largest auto market, the development of car networking and autopilot technology is a little slower, and the vigilance and emphasis on car network security are not so strong.

3, Japan, Germany led, how can He De?

We know that connected cars have many advantages, including improved traffic flow, better fuel economy, and more advanced infotainment equipment. However, on the other hand, the number of intruders that are connected to the car will also increase. This may lead to leakage of personal, financial, and vehicle-related information. Therefore, connected cars will become targets of attackers. For example, in the summer of 2015, white. Cap Hacker Charlie Miller and Chris Warrasek invaded the JEEP Cherokee.

The automotive network is a complex IT system that travels on the road and contains many electronic control units (ECUs) that are connected through the car's internal network. In order to ensure the security of the entire system, automobile manufacturers need to proceed from the whole and take adequate measures at all levels of the system. Although countries have started to supervise connected cars, they only touch on the surface of the problem. What's most important is that we must recognize the urgent need for security and privacy standardization.

Japan is the forerunner of global car networking, and it is also one of the countries with the most advanced car networking in the world. Since 1981, Honda Automobile Co., Ltd. has collaborated with Japanese consumer electronics company Alpine to develop the world's first gyroscope car navigation. Based on this, Honda Motor Co., Ltd. took the lead in launching the car networking service and integrating it with the mobile Internet to enhance car users. The stickiness. However, since 2014, Japan has frequently encountered malicious incidents such as attacking tire pressure monitoring systems, using wide-area networks to attack on-board LANs, and resolving anti-theft device keys. As a result, Japan has begun to enter a highly alert state for vehicle network security, and research and development Formulated corresponding countermeasures and management guidelines.

At the same time, Germany is also one of the countries that the earlier car network fully valued and tested and tried to find a way to deal with it. As early as 2011, a consortium of major automakers and parts suppliers headed by Daimler began experimenting with car networking in the Rhine-Main area, where a total of 120 cars connected to each other are located in the vicinity of Frankfurt. Test the practicality of this new technology. Together with Germany's high-end and top-notch automotive manufacturing technology, BMW, Audi and other well-known brands have successively introduced new automotive technologies in recent years. They have achieved success in terms of car networking and autopilot, which will help him formulate research on car network security. Standard specification.

4, the future of automatic driving

These real-world hacking actions have caused consumers to be very worried. This is not only an important part of life-hanging, but also one of the stumbling blocks for the development of self-driving cars in the future.

For the time being, let's forget about the data forecast. In the next five to 10 years, the premise of the rapid development of self-driving cars is to focus on networking, because only a huge database can sustain the still-accented AI deep learning promotion. To another stage. However, apart from the regulations on automobile network security standards that have been enacted and will be born in November, and Google has established five security rules for AI, there are no other formal and recognized safety standard rules, so the laws on artificial intelligence and automatic driving The formulation of laws and regulations is still an important obstacle to the limited development in the future.

Therefore, we still need to wait for the arrival of automatic driving in the future, because the power of science and technology will eventually break through human factors and secular standards, and travel through the long river of years to meet our lives.
