Intel is working to make smart cars safe from hackers

Alongside the plethora of useful features that smart cars offer is the ever-present threat of hackers. Security experts have been worrying about the threat that hackers pose to smart cars for years, but it wasn’t until just recently that consumers really started to understand how vulnerable these cars actually are. As it stands, smart cars have next to no security measures in place to defend against hackers, and the danger that this could pose to drivers goes without saying. That’s why Intel has formed the Automotive Security Review Board (ASRB), which the company hopes will be able to develop adequate protection for smart cars.
