Information Systems in the Automotive Industry

Informacijski sustavi neizostavan su dio suvremenog života. Ušli su u sve aspekte ljudskog djelovanja, pa tako i u automobilsku industriju. Vozačima donose mnoge prednosti, poput sigurnije i lagodnije vožnje te olakšanog načina upravljanja vozilom. S druge strane rizik njihove primjene u automobilima je velik. Naime, mnogi hakeri nastoje onesposobiti rad automobila ili samo promijeniti smjer funkcije nekog njegovog sustava. Stoga vlade i proizvođači automobila trebaju ulagati u informacijsku zaštitu, kako bi izbjegli moguće napade i zloupotrebe. Informacijska sigurnost i privatnost iznimno je važna za svakog korisnika, koji želi nesmetano uživati u proizvodima i uslugama koje je kupio.Information systems are an infallible part of modern life. They entered into all aspects of human activity and so in automobile industry. They bring many benefits to drivers, such as safer and easier ride and easier way to drive a car. On the other hand, the risk of their application in cars is high. In fact, many hackers are trying to disable the car or just change the direction of their systems. Therefore, governments and car producers need to invest in information security to avoid possible attacks and misuse. Information security and privacy is extremely important for all users who want to use the products and services they have purchased freely
