Millions of connected vehicles are travelling the globe today. In the commercial sector, these vehicles are found globally in mixed fleets across virtually every industry. These businesses and operators all lean on direct, real-time, wireless access to operational vehicle data in order to advance safety, drive productivity and operate responsibly.
Direct data access will be increasingly vital as electric vehicles become a larger part of the transportation universe. Access to and interaction with data will become the foundation of competition, innovation and value creation. Such a platform also helps enable the measurement and distribution of the electric vehicle load. A standardized, open, global data platform that is accessible to all stakeholders will become a vital underpinning of global transportation and mobility.
The security of cyber physical systems and networks is an essential component of data openness and platform neutrality; both imperatives reinforce each other. An open platform design facilitates the development of security standards, engagement of security experts, and leverages feedback from the broader security research community.
The Neutral Vehicle Platform is planned around security by design, well grounded recommendations, guidelines and standards with input from government agencies, independent experts and the security community. The key to security is design, process development, and collaboration, and the Neutral Vehicle enables all three.
The Neutral Vehicle enables vehicle owners and operators to collect and share data. It facilitates authorized service providers to access and utilize data to offer competitive products and services for today and create innovative models for smart transportation, smart communities and smart mobility as a service for tomorrow.
