AbstractThis paper explains the work-in-progress on a vehicle safety and security evaluation platform. Since the testing of cyber-attacks on an actual may be costly or dangerous, the platform enables us to evaluate the threat and the risk associated with cyber-attacks in a safe virtual environment. The goal is to integrate vehicle and powertrain models, mobility and network simulators to actual hardware running the control algorithms using CAN communication. Hardware is selected so as to allows expandability and application of wireless modules which will act as additional attack surfaces. In the current paper, the framework and ideology behind is testbed is described and current progress is shown. A simple GPS spoofing attack on a virtual test vehicle is done and some initial results are discussed.
