Abstract
The Transportation Cybersecurity and Resilience Center (TraCR) is developing a cybersecurity testbed for connected and autonomous vehicle systems. The goal of this testbed is to comprehensively evaluate the impact of cyberattacks on CAV systems and assess the efficacy of defense algorithms. To achieve this, the testbed incorporates the full life cycles of transportation services and realistic data streams. Specifically, it encompasses data collection, prediction, decision generation, and actuation across various transportation services (including private vehicles, ride-hailing, and public transit), with the data stream modeled using an open-source stream-processing platform named Kafka. This poster shows the testbed design and current development progress. The specific use cases are also highlighted.
