What is the Cybersecurity Integrator?

The Cybersecurity Integrator provides a standardized solution for integrating complex automotive security mechanisms. SecOC functionality is delivered via OEM specific plug-ins that can be selected and used directly within the dSPACE bus configuration tools.

Core Capabilities:

  • Modular OEM plugins for MAC computation, freshness handling, and key management
  • Native integration into the dSPACE toolchain
  • Plugin selection via dropdown menus in BusManager, ETHCP, and FRCP
  • Automatic integration of SecOC implementations into the application when selected
  • Unified API for consistent toolchain integration
     
Application Areas
  • Automotive bus and network communication: Integrates SecOC for CAN, FlexRay, and automotive Ethernet.
  • ECU development and automotive security engineering: Supports OEM specific SecOC implementations for secure onboard communication.
  • SIL/HIL testing and shift left security validation: Enables early and efficient testing of SecOC mechanisms in simulation and HIL.
  • CI/CD/CT workflows: Embeds SecOC related security checks into continuous testing pipelines.
