Autonomous vehicles are no longer a far-off concept, but a reality that is quickly becoming widespread. However, as with any new technology, there are challenges that come with it, especially in terms of cybersecurity. As autonomous vehicles become more common on roads, the risks associated with cybersecurity will become an increasingly critical concern, with the potential for hackers to gain control over the vehicle’s systems.

At DIS Capital, we are excited to partner with experienced venture capital investors in cybersecurity who support emerging players in the market such as Autocrypt, a South Korean startup that leads the way in providing secure communication solutions for connected cars. Their technology uses end-to-end encryption and a secure key exchange mechanism to prevent cyber attacks on connected cars.

We understand the importance of finding solutions that can secure the entire autonomous vehicle ecosystem, from the vehicle itself to the software and infrastructure that supports it. This includes securing communication networks and ensuring that all components of the ecosystem are protected from cyber threats.

Our investor partners are aware that cybersecurity is an ongoing concern rather than a one-time issue. As new threats arise, we need to evolve our solutions to meet these challenges.

We are excited to continue supporting Autocrypt as they make a difference in the automotive cybersecurity space to ensure safe driving for future generations and, possibly even sooner, for ourselves.
