Bill to Require Study of Vehicle Cybersecurity

Originally published by Bob Kraft.

The Hill reports that Reps. Joe Wilson and Ted Lieu intend to introduce legislation that “would require a cross-sector study to examine detection protocols, deterrence techniques and privacy best practices” regarding vehicle cybersecurity. The bill would require the FTC and NHTSA “to develop standards to protect drivers’ privacy and to guard against a potentially deadly hack of a vehicle,” the article reports. The Hill calls the bill “much less ambitious than similar legislation in the Senate.” Wilson is quoted saying, “I am proposing the SPY Car Study Act because it is irresponsible to mandate changes in a developing field before accurately assessing the situation.” The Hill says that “several high-profile car hacking incidents” have “thrust” vehicle cybersecurity “into the limelight.”
