This thesis deals with the operation and the communication of autonomous vehicles and more specifically on the security issues that arise with the deployment of such technology. There is a great number of publications that refer to the existent security vulnerabilities regarding this field and the proposed countermeasures. Based on 102 papers, this thesis combines and categorizes the known attacks and countermeasures covering both the in-vehicle automotive bus systems operation as well as the V2X communication protocol. Finally, the third part of the thesis covers the demonstration of attacks that can take place against the CAN protocol.
