Sweden's state-owned research institute RISE is launching what it claims to be Europe's most advanced cyber security initiative for vehicle testing. The RISE Cyber Test Lab for Automotive will enable the automotive industry to test vehicles using the latest cyber technology and the world's most rigorous testing methods.

The Cyber Test Lab will work with international telecommunications experts and ethical hackers to develop new methods and test rigs to address the growing cyber threat against vehicles. In this context, the founders hope to gain numerous relevant insights. The partnership is unique in tackling what has become a key concern for manufacturers competing to build connected vehicles, the research institute claims.
"We are establishing a world-leading hub with several test beds and scientists working with carefully selected partners. We will address the burgeoning cyber threat related to linked vehicles today and in the future. Automakers cannot work alone in finding ways to combat cyber attacks. This needs to be done with the broadest possible range of expertise to ensure that the entire industry benefits from centralised research," said RISE CEO Pia Sandvik.
