How secure is an automotive system? How can automotive manufacturers and suppliers increase the level of protection using Infineon’s AURIX™ microcontrollers? A deep dive into the hardware and software implementation of the AURIX™ is needed to answer these questions.
The aim of this document is to list and describe the main cyber security mechanisms implemented in AURIX™ microcontrollers, and how to use them to increase security in Automotive Electronic Control Units (ECUs).
In addition, this document provides an overview of system-level cyber security measures that can further enhance vehicle security.
