1. A computer-implemented method, the method comprising the following steps:
recognizing a possibility of a manipulation of the software of a first component of a plurality of components of a vehicle electrical system of a vehicle by a central device for mitigating a manipulation of software, the central device configured to mitigate the manipulation being part of the vehicle electrical system, and being configured to mitigate a manipulation of software in each component of the plurality of components of the vehicle electrical system;
initiating a countermeasure for mitigating the manipulation of the software of the first component; and
carrying out the countermeasure for mitigating the manipulation of the software of the first component, the countermeasure including changing a functionality of the first component and at least partially shifting the functionality of the first component to one or multiple other components of the plurality of components, the vehicle electrical system being configured to carry out the changing of the functionality and the at least partial shifting, also in the event of violation of one or multiple operating state-related criteria of the first component and/or of the vehicle.
