This article introduces the in-vehicle Ethernet/IP firewall, which is the basis of in-vehicle security.

ESCRYPT is the security brand of ETAS.

Overview

Comprehensive security measures are essential to effectively deal with cyber security threats in the automotive industry, where autonomous driving and connectivity are becoming more advanced. ESCRYPT's automotive Ethernet firewall, ESCRYPT CycurGATE, is a market-proven and essential solution for today's and tomorrow's gateways with ever-increasing security requirements.

A perfect balance of hardware/software co-design

ESCRYPT CycurGATE is embedded directly into Ethernet switches to centrally monitor and manage the entire packet flow without the interference of host controllers or individual ECUs. This firewall can be used as a library or as a standalone solution.

It also achieves an optimal balance of hardware/software co-design, allowing you to take full advantage of the hardware acceleration of Ethernet switches. It minimizes latency on the firewall by fusing the hardware mechanism of the Ethernet switch with software algorithms.

ESCRYPT's c-library-based firewall solution is tailored to run on microcontrollers and microprocessors.

Applications of ESCRYPT CycurGATE

■ A firewall to protect against a wide range of cyberattacks

DoS (denial of service) attacks

Block unauthorized communication to individual ECUs or entire networks

Secure external interface

 

■ Data routing effectively controls data flow between network segments/domains

system solution

A Security Strategy Across the Vehicle Lifecycle

■ Intrusion detection/intrusion prevention capabilities require comprehensive security mechanisms that are lastingly effective.

 

■ ESCRYPT CycurIDS, an intrusion detection system, monitors network traffic to detect and record anomalies and typical attack signatures.

ESCRYPT also offers a Cyber Defense Center backend, ESCRYPT CycurGUARD.

The system evaluates information from IDS components, detects recent attack trends, helps identify the cause of security incidents,

You can define countermeasures to distribute across fleet vehicles.
