The CANsec Controller Core integrates cybersecurity features into the widely adopted Controller Area Network (CAN) bus protocol. This enhancement ensures secure transmission of data between vehicle components, mitigating potential cyber threats. Designed with automotive environments in mind, it includes cryptographic modules that provide authentication and encryption, safeguarding data integrity and confidentiality.
Integrating seamlessly into existing CAN infrastructure, the core supports various security algorithms while maintaining the low-latency communication that CAN networks are known for. Its design allows automotive manufacturers to update their existing systems to meet evolving security standards without significant overhauls in software or hardware.
The core is compliant with the CAN in Automation (CiA) specifications and supports onboard diagnostics and other automotive functions, enhancing vehicle safety and reliability. By providing an additional layer of security, the CANsec Controller Core stands as a crucial component in the development of modern, intelligent transportation systems.
