transmitting, to a remote system, a first authentication component;

obtaining, from the remote system, a set of decryption keys, wherein the set of decryption keys are secured on the remote system by a multi-factor authentication protocol based on the first authentication component from the autonomous vehicle and a second authentication component from a user device associated with a user of the autonomous vehicle; and

enabling the one or more functions of the autonomous vehicle by decrypting, using the set of decryption keys, the encrypted data.

2. The secure start system of claim 1 , wherein obtaining the set of decryption keys comprises:

obtaining, responsive to authentication of the first authentication component by the remote system, a tunnel key from the remote system;

establishing, via a communication router, a private communications session with a remote data vault associated with the remote system; and

obtaining, via the private communications session, the set of decryption keys from the remote data vault.

3. The secure start system of claim 1 , wherein the first authentication component comprises a credential associated with the autonomous vehicle.

4. The secure start system of claim 1 , wherein the second authentication component comprises a credential associated with the user.

5. The secure start system of claim 1 , wherein the second authentication component is based on biometric data associated with the user that is input to the user device.

6. The secure start system of claim 1 , wherein the remote system is configured to receive a time-limited access token responsive to authentication of the second authentication component.

7. The secure start system of claim 1 , wherein enabling the one or more functions of the autonomous vehicle comprises enabling an autonomous drive function of the autonomous vehicle.

8. The secure start system of claim 1 , wherein the secure start system is onboard the autonomous vehicle.

9. A computing system for securing an autonomous vehicle, the computing comprising:

one or more processors; and

a non-transitory, computer-readable memory storing instructions that are executable by the one or more processors to cause the secure start system to perform operations, the operations comprising:

receiving, from the autonomous vehicle, a first authentication component;

receiving, from a user device associated with a user of the autonomous vehicle, a second authentication component;

transmitting, based on authentication of the first authentication component and the second authentication component, a set of decryption keys to the autonomous vehicle, wherein the decryption keys are configured to enable one or more functions of the autonomous vehicle by decrypting, using the set of decryption keys, encrypted data comprising an autonomous file system that enables the one or more functions to be executed by the autonomous vehicle.

10. The computing system of claim 9 , wherein the operations comprise:

transmitting, responsive to the authentication of the first authentication component, a tunnel key to the autonomous vehicle, the tunnel key configured to establish, via a communication router, a private communications session with a remote data vault; and

transmitting, via the private communications session, the set of decryption keys from the remote data vault.

11. The computing system of claim 9 , wherein the first authentication component comprises a credential associated with the autonomous vehicle.

12. The computing system of claim 9 , wherein the second authentication component comprises a credential associated with the user.

13. The computing system of claim 9 , wherein the second authentication component is based on biometric data associated with the user that is input to the user device.

14. The computing system of claim 9 , wherein the operations comprise:

receiving a time-limited access token responsive to authentication of the second authentication component; and

transmitting, responsive to validation of the time-limited access token, the set of decryption keys to the autonomous vehicle.

15. The computing system of claim 9 , wherein enabling the one or more functions of the autonomous vehicle comprises enabling an autonomous drive function of the autonomous vehicle.

16. A computer-implemented method for securing an autonomous vehicle, the method comprising:

receiving, from the autonomous vehicle, a first authentication component;

receiving, from a user device associated with a user of the autonomous vehicle, a second authentication component;

transmitting, based on authentication of the first authentication component and the second authentication component, a set of decryption keys to the autonomous vehicle, wherein the decryption keys are configured to enable one or more functions of the autonomous vehicle by decrypting, using the set of decryption keys, encrypted data comprising an autonomous file system that enables the one or more functions to be executed by the autonomous vehicle.

17. The method of claim 16 , wherein the first authentication component comprises a credential associated with the autonomous vehicle.

18. The method of claim 16 , wherein the second authentication component comprises a credential associated with the user.

19. The method of claim 16 , wherein the second authentication component is based on biometric data associated with the user that is input to the user device.

20. The method of claim 16 , wherein enabling the one or more functions of the autonomous vehicle comprises enabling an autonomous drive function of the autonomous vehicle.
