Securing the Fleet. Safeguarding the People in It.
AV Cyber Lab secures modern government and high-trust vehicle fleets against cyber risks that traditional procurement processes were never built to evaluate. Today’s vehicles are no longer just transport assets. They host dozens of onboard computers, multiple wireless interfaces, remote connectivity, and permanent links to the manufacturer. These capabilities introduce new layers of risk across software supply chains, over-the-air updates, connected control systems, and operational data exposure.
For governments, national defense agencies, transport authorities, and fleet operators, a connected fleet can become both an intelligence surface and a public safety surface. When a single platform carries ministers, security personnel, and senior officials, every vehicle may expose location, conversation, biometric presence, and the daily rhythm of the state. Where steering, braking, and driver assistance run on networked computers, cyber failure is no longer limited to data loss. It can directly affect the safety of the people inside the vehicle and around it.
Planet Nine provides independent vehicle safety research that makes these risks visible, measurable, and addressable before they reach the road. The AV Cyber Lab operates outside the vehicle manufacturer and supplier chain, using operational target vehicles and procured spare components that match the fleet’s hardware, software builds, and revisions. Coverage spans the complete vehicle and all connected systems, from radio to brakes and from cloud to chassis, helping clients strengthen AV Fleet Security Assurance, Vehicle Safety Risk Assessment, and Sovereign Transport Cyber Resilience.
