Where Security and Safety Meet in Automotive Engineering

Explore the intersection of security and safety in automotive systems through this 44-minute conference talk by Elana Copperman from Mobileye/Intel. Delve into the engineering foundations of both disciplines, examining where they converge and diverge. Learn about memory protection features, isolation techniques, and Freedom From Interference (FFI) principles. Discover how eBPF and fault handling extensions to Linux drivers play a role in enhancing both security and safety. Gain practical insights into the challenges and considerations when implementing these concepts in real-world automotive applications.
