Fraunhofer IPMS 's Security IP applications in Automotive and Smart home

· IPs,Application

Imagine Fraunhofer IPMS 's Security IP as CANsec- the security of electronic vehicle systems , MACsec- provide authentication, integrity, and encryption of data in Ethernet networks for the multi-media controllers.

Scene 1: Electronic Vehicle Systems with CANsec

Description: A high-tech automotive manufacturing facility with autonomous electric vehicles. The vehicles display multi-media controller’s branding prominently. Inside the vehicle, a transparent view shows the internal network with CANsec modules securing data transmission. Data flows between electronic control units (ECUs) are represented by glowing arrows, with security layers indicated by shield icons. Pop-up notifications display messages such as "Threat Detected and Neutralized by CANsec".

Background

  • Environment: A high-tech automotive manufacturing facility or a modern street with autonomous electric vehicles.
  • Vehicles: Autonomous electric vehicles from the multi-media controllers, equipped with advanced connectivity and security systems.

Elements

• CANsec Implementation: Show the vehicle's internal network with CANsec modules securing data transmission.

• Data Flow: Visualize data flow between various electronic control units (ECUs) in the vehicle, with security layers indicating encryption and authentication.

• Security Alerts: Display notifications or alerts that indicate potential security threats being neutralized by CANsec.

1. CANsec Implementation:

o Overlay a transparent view of the vehicle's internal network showing the CANsec modules.

o Use visual indicators like locks or shield icons to represent encryption and security.

2. Data Flow:

o Use arrows or lines to show data flow between ECUs.

o Apply effects like glowing edges or color gradients to indicate secure data paths.

3. Security Alerts:

o Add pop-up notifications or alerts with messages like "Threat Detected and Neutralized by CANsec.

 

Scene 2: Ethernet Networks with MACsec in the multi-media controller solutions

Description: A modern home featuring Multi-media controller's set-top box (STB) and smart home devices, integrated into an advanced network infrastructure. Ethernet cables and network switches with MACsec modules are visible, ensuring secure data transmission represented by encrypted data packets traveling through the network as glowing lines. A network monitoring dashboard shows real-time security status and alerts for the multi-media controller solutions.
