Why do motorsport and automotive organisations need penetration testing?
Motorsport and automotive organisations run complex, connected technology under intense time pressure: design and manufacturing systems, vehicles and rigs that generate and transmit data continuously, a dense web of supplier and sponsor integrations, and infrastructure that has to travel to every event. Incursion Cyber Security’s penetration testing applies directly to the systems these organisations depend on, delivered by testers who assess these classes of system every day.
Where the risk sits
Telemetry and connected systems
Vehicles, test rigs and trackside equipment generate and transmit data continuously, and the applications, APIs and infrastructure that collect, store and act on that data are a high-value target. We test the web applications and APIs that carry it, and the external and internal infrastructure behind them.
Suppliers, partners and sponsors
Motorsport in particular runs on a dense network of technical partnerships and sponsor integrations, each one a potential way in. We test the external-facing infrastructure and the web and API integrations that connect you to third parties, so a weakness in a partner’s link does not become a weakness in yours.
Infrastructure that travels
A race or event operation stands up its network wherever it goes, often at short notice and on unfamiliar ground. We review the build and configuration of that infrastructure and test the wireless networks it depends on, so what you deploy trackside is as sound as what you run at base.
The factory and the design office
Design, simulation and manufacturing systems hold the intellectual property that makes the difference between winning and losing. We provide internal infrastructure testing and physical security testing of the sites that house them.
Working with us
We are actively building our work in this sector. What we bring is a team that tests these classes of system every day in other industries — connected applications and APIs, external and internal infrastructure, wireless networks and physical sites — and applies that experience to the specific demands of motorsport and automotive. Every engagement is scoped by an active tester with the right skill set, so the work fits how you actually operate and nothing is oversold.
