Collaboration pairs leaders in API and automotive cybersecurity to enable broad protection\u00a0<\/span><\/i>as attacks on automotive APIs climb within and among vehicle, cloud and mobile\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n DALLAS and TOKYO, May 29, 2024\u2014<\/b>VicOne, an automotive cybersecurity solutions leader, today announced a partnership with <\/span>42Crunch<\/span><\/a> \u00a0to enhance the security of application programming interfaces (APIs) for the software-defined vehicle (SDV) and broader connected-vehicle ecosystem. Through the partnership, automotive original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and suppliers achieve differentiating benefits:<\/span><\/p>\n The cyber-attack surface has expanded rapidly with the trend toward SDVs and increasing reliance on the cloud and APIs. VicOne noted that API-related incidents contributed to 12 percent of automotive security incidents from the second half of 2022 to the first half of 2023. To date, it has been challenging to attain security visibility across the broadening automotive ecosystem, but the VicOne\/42Crunch partnership promises to eliminate unknown security blind spots.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cOur API security testing and protection services are used by Fortune 500 enterprises and over 1 million developers worldwide, and we are thrilled to partner with VicOne to bring these capabilities to the automotive ecosystem,\u201d said Jacques Declas, chief executive officer (CEO) of 42Crunch. \u201cAPIs are inherently easy to expose but difficult to defend. As the automotive industry relies more heavily on APIs in SDVs, OEMs and their suppliers will be uniquely equipped through our partnership with VicOne to tackle threats and comply with evolving cybersecurity mandates by integrating diverse sensor data for comprehensive risk assessment and actionable insights.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n According to a Gartner<\/span>\u00ae<\/span> report, <\/span>Innovation Insight for API Protection<\/span><\/i><\/a>, \u201cAPI protection products provide three main types of functionality \u2014 discovery, posture management and runtime protection.\u201d<\/span>1<\/span> Utilizing 42Crunch\u2019s API Audit vulnerability testing solution and API Firewall in tandem with artificial intelligence (AI)\/Large Language Modeling (LLM) via the VicOne <\/span>xNexus<\/span><\/a> next-generation vehicle security operations center (VSOC) platform, OEMs and suppliers gain precise, contextualized and actionable threat insights to enhance risk visibility across the full ecosystem, optimize resource allocation, accelerate attack investigations and eliminate wasted effort in chasing \u201cfalse positives.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Furthermore, data from VicOne\u2019s <\/span>xCarbon<\/span><\/a> VSOC sensor and smart cockpit protection can be correlated into clear narratives to facilitate continuous and dynamic risk assessment across the automotive supply chain. VicOne\u2019s <\/span>xZETA<\/span><\/a> automotive vulnerability and SBOM management system scans vehicle software to identify zero-day, undisclosed and known vulnerabilities, malware, ransomware, and advanced persistent threats. Information feeds back into Threat and Risk Assessment (TARA) results to ensure alignment with ISO\/SAE 21434 processes and enable continuous monitoring.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cWhereas automotive cybersecurity not long ago focused almost exclusively on in-vehicle APIs, it must today account for API attacks within and among vehicles, the cloud and mobile,\u201d said Max Cheng, CEO of VicOne. \u201cThis partnership brings together 42Crunch\u2019s proven expertise in API security and ours in automotive cybersecurity to enable a solution engineered for the new, more complex reality in this industry.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n API Security Solutions for the Automative industry<\/a><\/p>\n About 42Crunch<\/b><\/p>\n 42Crunch enables a standardized approach to API security that automates the enforcement of security compliance across distributed development and security ecosystems.
