# Software Over The Air
+Software updates in connected vehicles are a very useful feature, which can
+deliver significant benefits. If not implemented with security in mind,
+software updates can incur serious vulnerabilities. Any software update system
+must ensure that not only are the software updates to devices done in a secure way,
+but also that the repositories and servers hosting these updates are adequately
+protected. As the process of updating software migrates from a Dealership update model
+towards an **OTA** update model, securing these processes becomes a high priority.
+
**SOTA** is made possible by **AppFw** (See Platform part). It will be possible
to manage in a simple way the packets (i.g. Android like).
