Implementing New IT Security Solutions in Automotive Immobilizer Systems

Abstract:

One of the main methods to evaluate, to investigate and to integrate the behavior of security systems within the automotive design is by using modeling and simulation. Due to the fact that the ECUs represent more than 57% from vehicle architecture and they are using protocols to communicate through the CAN networks many possibilities for breaking security of the vehicles successfully may appear. In order to understand all of these aspects and to be able to create a simulation model for immobilizer systems, it is mandatory to represent the features and functions of all components of this kind of systems. Developing a immobilizer model include the possibility of testing virtual models in different conditions and for different functioning modes.
