US President Joe Biden announced “unprecedented actions to ensure that cars on US roads from countries of concern like China do not undermine our national security.” He asked the Commerce Department to launch an advanced rulemaking (ANPRM) on connected vehicles with technology from those countries and to take action to respond to the risks.

ANPRM notes that China likely represents the broadest, most active, and most persistent cyber espionage threat to the US government and private networks. Experts suggest this risk of espionage poses a more significant Chinese threat to the rapidly emerging market of connected vehicles (CVs) than outright damaging attacks.
