“…A multitude of interconnected embedded computer systems, called Electronic Control Units (ECUs), have been widely used in vehicles forming a distributed network to control a broad range of automobile functions [42] including powertrain and in-vehicle infotainment. In general, ECUs can communicate with each other over many in-vehicle bus communication networks [42]- [44]: Controller Area Network (CAN), Local Interconnect Network (LIN), FlexRay, Media Oriented System Transport (MOST), and Ethernet (see Table 2)). The use of each one of them depends on the criticality, cost, bandwidth, and timing requirements of the desired functions.…”

“…Due to the diversity of in-vehicle bus communication networks, a gateway ECU is required to coordinate between the different buses and manage communication protocols of the intra-vehicle domain. Furthermore, ECU plays a crucial role in bridging the communication to external networks allowing a great flexibility and convenience in the system design [44].…”

With the proliferation of embedded technologies and wireless capabilities, today's vehicles are no longer isolated mechanical machines. They become part of a hyper-connected system-Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS)-that has the potential to support multiple levels of autonomy and intelligence improving considerably the safety, efficiency, and sustainability of transportation networks. However, this raises new security issues that make the whole system prone to cybersecurity attacks that threaten both the safety and privacy of all road-users. This paper gives a short background tutorial on the main security issues and the different attacks that hinder Intelligent Transport Systems. To enable secure and safe ITS applications, this paper provides a comprehensive analysis of existing solutions and highlights their strengths and limitations. Finally, this survey presents key challenges in the field, and discusses recent trends that must be factored in by researchers, implementers, and car manufactures to improve the security of ITS.

“…MOST is, on the other hand, a costly network used in the in-vehicular infotainment (IVI) system, which requires a high bandwidth communication [74]. Finally, FlexRay is used in ECUs, which require a relative high fault tolerance, such as air bag control unit [75]. The CAN bus architecture is based on a peer-to-peer network, where each ECU and peripheral units are connected and can interact with one another directly as peers.…”

Cybersecurity of Smart Electric Vehicle Charging: A Power Grid Perspective

et al. 2020

With the roll-out of electric vehicles (EVs), the automobile industry is transitioning away from conventional gasoline-fueled vehicles. As a result, the EV charging demand is continuously growing and to meet this growing demand, various types of electric vehicle charging stations (EVCSs) are being deployed for commercial and residential use. This nexus of EVs, EVCSs, and power grids creates complex cyber-physical interdependencies that can be maliciously exploited to damage each of these components. This paper describes and analyzes cyber vulnerabilities that arise at this nexus and points to the current and emerging gaps in the security of the EV charging ecosystem. These vulnerabilities must be addressed as the number of EVs continue to grow worldwide and their impact on the power grid becomes more viable. The purpose of this paper is to list and characterize all backdoors that can be exploited to seriously harm either EV and EVCS equipments, or power grid, or both. The presented issues and challenges intend to ignite research efforts on cybersecurity of smart EV charging and enhancing power grid resiliency against such demand-side cyberattacks in general. INDEX TERMS Cybersecurity, electric vehicles, electric vehicle charging stations, smart grids.

The Controller Area Network (CAN) is considered as the de-facto standard for the in-vehicle communications due to its real-time performance and high reliability. Unfortunately, the lack of security protection on the CAN bus gives attackers the opportunity to remotely compromise a vehicle. In this paper, we propose a Lightweight Encryption and Authentication Protocol (LEAP) with low cost and high efficiency to address the security issue of the CAN bus. LEAP exploits the securityenhanced stream cipher primitive to provide encryption and authentication for the CAN messages. Compared with the state-of-the-art Message Authentication Code (MAC) based approaches, LEAP requires less memory, is 8X faster, and thwarts the most recently proposed attacks.
