Automobiles are undergoing digitalization, including the development of automated driving technology and the rise of Software Defined Vehicle (SDV), the risk of cyberattacks is increasing. Panasonic Automotive Systems brings together security technologies and human resources cultivated across an extensive range of businesses, including automotive devices, home appliances, smart phones, avionics, payment terminals, and semiconductor devices, into the automotive field. Our world-class technology safeguards automobiles by proactively protecting, monitoring and responding to cyberattacks. Through these efforts we enhance the safety & security of mobility for our customers.

The future of driving is connected, from next-gen cockpits to high-performance computers. Seamlessly integrated components and constant network connectivity will revolutionize the user experience. While this enhances convenience, it also increases the risk of cyberattacks that could result in unauthorized control of functions such as driving, steering, and braking. We offer a variety of solutions to respond to these risks.

The value of these advantages has been recognized and adopted by car manufacturers.

When an abnormality is detected in an automobile by our protection and detection solutions, analysis must be performed to determine the correct response.

The Vehicle Security Operation Center (VSOC) analyzes and manages information transmitted from automobiles using Security Information and Event Management (SIEM), our cloud-based monitoring system. Our SIEM achieves highly accurate, automated analysis using AI with our automotive security technology and security information collected by the Panasonic Group’s products including home appliances, IoT devices, factories, etc. By promptly and accurately analyzing the status of vehicles and the behaviors of attacks, we can response to cyberattacks quickly and reduce potential damages.

We can protect automobile safety by monitoring large numbers of automobiles from the VSOC and responding to cyberattacks. Cyberattacks are immediately analyzed for quick response and recovery when they are detected by SIEM.

Automobile cyber security measures are now globally mandated by law, with measures required at all stages of the automobile lifecycle from development, manufacturing, post-shipment to disposal.

Panasonic Group is deeply involved in the development of security technologies and their application to products, as well as technology development and mass production. We have accumulated security technology know-how for more than 30 years, starting from the product development of digital home appliances, which were the first to require cyber security technology.

We provide realize practical and speedy solutions backed by our accumulated know-how to support regulation compliance. In threat analysis conducted in the early stages of automobile development, we provide automated analysis services to improve development efficiency.

We provide robust automobile security that leverages the wide range of technologies and experience we have cultivated over the years to build safe and secure automotive lifestyles for all our customers. We will continue to provide innovative security solutions in response to the ever-changing threat of cyberattacks. In the coming years, as automotive security becomes even more important, we will maintain our world-leading technology in this field and contribute to the further growth and development of the automobile industry.
We will also continue to contribute broadly to the security of our customers’ lives by applying the technologies we have accumulated in the automobile industry to other areas of the Panasonic Group, such as home appliances.
