This paper derives security requirements to ensure the safe operation of unmanned ground vehicles from the perspective of accident causation through threat modeling. By analyzing the components of unmanned ground vehicles and identifying potential vulnerabilities in each element, we constructs attack trees that could lead to accidents such as collisions and sudden stops. From these attack trees, security requirements are derived. These requirements are then compared with the security requirements corresponding to accident causation threats as outlined in the UN's document on autonomous vehicle threats and security requirements, UN R155 Annex 5. The comparison highlights how the security requirements proposed in this paper align with those established by the UN. The application of the security requirements proposed in this paper is expected to facilitate the smooth introduction and operation of unmanned ground vehicles.
