CyberAuto Challenge
About the CyberAuto Challenge
The CyberAuto Challenge is the oldest and longest running event that focuses on automotive cybersecurity (established in 2012). It seeks to inspire and train the next generation workforce and puts students in teams with industry, government, and hackers/researchers to work on real platforms and full systems. Trainers are among the best in the world. The classes change every year, but for the past several years we have emphasized electrical vehicle & infrastructure, forensics, and wireless attacks. Students from 13 different countries have participated (as of 2023). We are strongly industry friendly, and our sponsors have made it possible to hold this annual event at no cost to the participating students.
Students may apply using the web form or send a fillable PDF via email.
