Kai Grambow, Global Head of Automotive at Capgemini, said: “Everyone working for a car company has now realized how important cybersecurity is, from those on the shop floor right the way to the CEO. Failure to prevent an attack could mean mass recalls, lost revenue, regulatory fines and even risks to customer safety. Much of the focus to date has been on safeguarding IT systems, which is difficult enough, but as automotive brands are increasingly working with connected ‘things’ like factory robots and millions of connected car parts the complexity of staying secure is mind-boggling.”
