Automotive Forensics
By: Megan Baker
What is Automotive Forensics?
- Branch of digital forensic that recovers digital evidence and data stored on automotive systems of interconnected vehicles
- Systems include ECUs, manufacturer IT systems, consumer electronics, as well as vehicle to infrastructure/vehicle communication systems
Understanding Automotive Forensics
Automotive Forensic Process
Automotive Foresnic Process
- Autmotive Forensics helps with accident investigations, warranty claims and cyber attacks
- There is 4 phases to Automotive Forensic Process:
1. Forensic Readiness
2. Data Acquisition
3. Data Analysis
4. Documentation
- Modern Vehicles have what is called a Vehicle Infotainment System that makes them Connected Vehicles which hold lots of vaible data
What is a Connected Vehicle?
Connected Vehicles
- A Connected Vehicle also called an Interconnected Vehicle is an automobile that can communicate with other systems outside of the vehicle
- Today, vehicles have become part of the Internet of Things (IoT) and have their own In-Vehicle Networks

What is Collected by Investigators?
Collection
- Data and evidence is collected from:
- Black Boxes
- Hardware
- Software
- Storage
- Communication Technologies
Security Concerns
Security Risks
- A lack of digital forensic guidlines when it comes to the automotive industry
- Like any type of technology hackers are major threat to Connected Vehicles
- Modern Cars are like four-wheel computers
Solutions
How to Fix it
Solutions in Cyber-Security include:
- Coding Standards and Guidelines (Ex. ISO/SAE 21434 standard and United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) WP.29)
- SAST
