Date/Time: Wednesday, October 19 - 3:00 - 4:00pm ET
Webinar Description:
Cyber security plays an integral role in the development and management of autonomous vehicles. From data storage and protection to communication infrastructure to risk analysis and risk reduction, the conversation is timely and at the forefront of industry leaders’ minds as they work to promote trust in uncrewed and autonomous systems.
During this webinar, attendees will learn about the technological advancements and insights into the future of cyber security.
Speakers:
No Bars? No Problem - Navigation in GPS-denied Environments
Date/Time: Wednesday, April 6 at 3:00 - 4:00 pm EST
Webinar Description: As missions continue to evolve and new applications for uncrewed systems are explored, more advanced navigation options will be necessary, which is especially true in GPS/GNSS-denied environments. Join professionals as they discuss the use of new and blended technologies to improve access to accurate location information in environments that have intentional and unintentional interference.

Sen. Gillibrand: Paving the Way for U.S. Cyber Excellence
Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) deserves congratulations for successfully advocating for the creation of “a road map for establishing, building and devising a curriculum for an institution that would staff up the federal cyber workforce,” an initiative that was included in the
On the Road to Assured Autonomy
AUSVI's XPONENTIAL 2021 in Atlanta, Georgia, began day one with a focus on technology and an accent on how technology affords assured autonomy. Panelists and speakers focused on the challenge of serving assured autonomy, delving into the processes and methodologies to ensure safe and practical systems for autonomous systems.
Panels tackled the issues via various topics. These included framing assured autonomy and developing ways to best think about assured autonomy. What is the best approach to safety? And how should these approaches influence the development of technology?
Panel shares insights and recommendations on cyber security for drone operations
A six-member panel of security-minded industry leaders spent a Tuesday afternoon session explaining and exploring what many consider to be an increasingly important, under-examined question: What precautions should companies that use unmanned aircraft be taking to ward off cyber attacks?
The group, along with other security experts not present, took up the question to help the Joint Authorities for Rulemaking on Unmanned Systems develop what is being called a “Cyber SORA” (Specific Operations Risk Assessment) protocol. JARUS is expected to release a document for external comment in the coming week.
Key Pillars for the Unmanned Industry to Achieve Assured Autonomy
As the AUVSI community looks forward to XPONENTIAL 2021, AUVSI hosted an XPONENTIAL Webinar Series to preview the educational programming that will take place virtually and in-person at the event later this year. The week’s programming kicked off with Dr. Cara LaPointe, co-director of the Johns Hopkins Institute for Assured Autonomy and an expert at the intersection of technology, policy, leadership, and ethics.
ST Engineering and SafeRide Technologies partner to provide cybersecurity protection for autonomous vehicles
Global technology, defense and engineering group ST Engineering has announced a strategic partnership with SafeRide Technologies to integrate SafeRide’s “vSentry” software cybersecurity suite with ST Engineering’s Connected Electric Vehicles and Autonomous Vehicles (AV) platforms.
A “specialist” in automotive cybersecurity, SafeRide Technologies offers “anomaly uncovering” and cyber threat prevention for connected and autonomous vehicles.
