ITU Workshop on "Security of Intelligent Transport System and Connected Autonomous Vehicle"

​​​ 7 September 2026 (Morning)

Chongqing, China​



The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is organizing a  workshop on  “Security​ of Intelligent Transport System and Connected Autonomous Vehicle​​​”  on the morning of 7 September 2026  in Chongqing, China, at the kind invitation of the China Automotive Engineering Research Institute (CAERI). 

The workshop is organized alongside the 2nd Content Week meetings of ITU-T Study Group 17, Security, 7-11 September 2026 (see TSB Collective 9/17​).

The objectives of the workshop is to share the latest technological developments, emerging threats, and cybersecurity best practices in the fields of security convergence (Cybersecurity, Functional Safety, and SOTIF), Autonomous Driving Security, and Privacy and Data Security for Intelligent Transport System and Connected Autonomous Vehicle and provide guidance for future standardization activities and technical directions.

 The workshop will be followed  by a second workshop,  ITU Workshop on “Advancing Standardization for Secure Agentic AI”​  taking place at  the same venue, on the  
afternoon of 7 September 2026.


Participation is free of charge and open to all interested stakeholders including ITU Member States, Sector Members, Associates and Academic Institutions and to any individual from a country that is a member of ITU and who wishes to contribute to the work.​

Draft Programme coming soon 

​​​​09:00 - 09:20​
Opening remarks
  • MC: Wei Xu
  • Leaders from Competent Authorities of MIIT/Chongqing Municipal Commission of Economy and Information Technology
  • Arnaud Taddei, Chair, ITU-T Study Group 17
  • Leaders from China Automotive Engineering Research Institute Co., Ltd
9:209:50Session 1: Security Convergence ( Cybersecurity, Functional Safety, and SOTIF)

With the increasing intelligence and connectivity of vehicles, cyberattacks may directly impact functional safety and safety of the intended functionality (SOTIF), potentially leading to safety accidents. Therefore, security convergence is becoming increasingly important.
Format: Presentation (15 mins per speaker)

9:50-10:35
Session 2: Autonomous Driving Security
Autonomous driving systems are evolving from rule-based to AI-driven approaches, with large models and end-to-end perception and decision-making technologies increasingly applied. At the same time, adversarial attacks against AI models and sensor spoofing attacks pose new security challenges that need to be addressed.
Format: Presentation (15 mins per speaker)
10:35-11:00
Coffee Break
11:00-11:30
Session 3: Privacy and Data Security
Connected and autonomous vehicles have increasingly become “mobile data centers", continuously collecting vehicle operational data, user behavior data, and environmental sensing data. The cross-domain flow and sharing of this data pose risks to privacy and compliance, potentially compromising data security.
Format: Presentation (15 mins per speaker)
11:30-12:00
Session 4: Standardization Work
Format: Presentation (15 mins per speaker)

12:00-12:10
​Future outlook and ending remarks
  • ​Arnaud Taddei, Chair, ITU-T Study Group 17
