Abstract

Integration of digital tachographs with emerging technologies, such as Intelligent Transport System (ITS) or fleet management system, extends the initial mission of tachographs. In addition to supporting the enforcement of social and commercial rules, they improve driver experience and increase transport and maintenance efficiency.

On the other hand, trustworthiness of information provided by these “smart” tachographs remains crucial to accurately reflect drivers’ activities and prevent fraud. In this article, we analyse how the new trends in digital tachograph technology, such as wireless communication, integration with the ITS and satellite positioning systems, change the security and privacy threat landscape.
