This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070) provides $300,726 to The Research Foundation for the State University of New York (RF SUNY) for a three-year collaborative research project titled "TOWARDS SECURE AND RESILIENT COLLABORATIVE AUTONOMOUS DRIVING (COAD)." The project aims to investigate the security and robustness of COAD systems, which involve connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs) and roadside units, in order to improve the safety and resiliency of these cyber-physical systems. The research team, composed of investigators from the University at Buffalo, UC Irvine, the Indian Institute of Technology at Kharagpur, and the Indian Institute of Technology at Jodhpur, will take a systematic approach to identify new attack vectors, develop mitigation strategies, and create new datasets, publications, and educational materials to address these challenges. The award will support joint mentoring of students, including those from underrepresented minority groups, and increase public awareness of cybersecurity threats and trust in autonomous driving technologies.
