Risk: Security
Definition
The identification of potential security risks within the communication spectrum is a complex issue, in particular because Mobility IntelliDrive leverages wireless other than DSRC. Addressing the security issues within all of these spectrums will be key to protecting the public at large from predatory actions and ensure that message transmission is authentic.
Objectives
•Data Environments:
•Analyze the risks associated with storing data in large repositories and if that makes data a more attractive target.
•Applications:
•Identify risks associated with non-DSRC communications and how that effects the deployment and safety of consumer applications.
•Analyze whether certain applications are likely to be more vulnerable than others.
•Compare and recommend different encryption techniques for managing the safety of PII.
•Determine whether open source software/applications are more open to security breaches than proprietary software/applications.
