TheCar Connectivity Consortium(CCC), on a model similar to that of the Wi-Fi Alliance or the Bluetooth Special Interest Group, is responsible for defining the standards for communication protocols used in particular by automobiles to communicate with each other and with their users. Among the networks managed by the organization, we notably find the Digital Key, which, as its name suggests, aims to dematerialize the keys that start the engine or open the doors.
Its latest version, 2.0, has just been officially released, and among the members who will benefit from it, we find…Apple. Along with historic manufacturers like BMW, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, and Volkswagen, the technology company also rubs shoulders with LG, Panasonic and Samsung.
In a future version of iOS?
CarKey, the option that Apple would develop internally for iOS and which has already leaked in images, is an asset that allows us tounlock our doorfrom our cell phone. The screenshots published so far show a dedicated space for this menu, it remains to be seen if it will be integrated intoWalletor independent. The novelty could arrive with iOS 14, with an announcement at WWDC.
In its press release, it should be noted that the CCC also places particular emphasis on security andconfidentiality: Cupertino's trademark in recent years, this criterion is essential when we talk about driving. Especially whenwe know that the most effective only take a few minutes to hack a Tesla.
