Swedish cybersecurity company Clavister has partnered with NXP Semiconductors to develop AI-driven cybersecurity solutions for the automotive industry.

This collaboration comes in the wake of new UN regulations that demand heightened cybersecurity measures for vehicles.

Utilising Clavister's AI technology within NXP’s OrangeBox Automotive Connectivity Domain Controller Development Platform, the collaboration seeks to secure connected vehicles by preventing malware intrusions and enabling real-time detection of cyber threats into automotive subsystems.

Clavister CEO John Vestberg said: “We are excited to be working with NXP Semiconductors, one of the most prominent leaders in the automotive industry, to explore how Clavister’s cutting-edge AI-based cybersecurity technology can be used to secure the connected vehicles of today and tomorrow.”

The integration of Clavister’s AI and machine learning capabilities with NXP’s i.MX 9 platform is designed to identify denial-of-service attacks by analysing vehicle network traffic.

This move aims to fortify the security of next-generation vehicles against the increasing threat of cyberattacks.

NXP Semiconductors automotive edge processing, global product marketing, senior director Jim Bridgwater said: “With the increasing adoption of connected services, vehicles are more vulnerable to cyberattacks than ever.

“This growing threat demands sophisticated cybersecurity solutions capable of identifying and preventing new attack vectors. Our collaboration with Clavister brings advanced AI-powered attack detection to the OrangeBox ecosystem, empowering automakers to build AI-driven telematics with robust security against cyber threats.”

The urgency for enhanced cybersecurity in the automotive sector has been underscored by the introduction of UN Regulation No. 155 by the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE).

This regulation mandates cybersecurity management systems for vehicle manufacturers to protect against cyber risks throughout a vehicle's lifecycle.

In light of these regulatory pressures, automotive companies are actively seeking advanced cybersecurity solutions.
