Abstract:
An apparatus and method of an attachment device for interfacing with an on-board diagnostic system of a vehicle is provided. The device includes an application processor configured to receive input from a terminal, control processing of the input by the on-board diagnostic system, transmit a result of the processing of the input by the on-board diagnostic system to the terminal, and a secure element interposed in the communication path between the application processor and the on-board diagnostic system, the secure element configured to filter the input of an on-board diagnostic operation that is untrusted.
Abstract:
An apparatus and a method for encrypting and decrypting data in a device are provided. The apparatus includes a processor and a memory. The processor is configured to transmit a data command from an application to an encryption driver that executes in a kernel space, determine if the application is authenticated to perform the data command based on an access policy, transmit, when the application is authenticated, a first key to a cryptographic library that executes in an application space, and perform the data command based on the first key after receiving a response via the cryptographic library. The first key is stored in an encryption driver in the kernel space and is not available to applications in the application space.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method of a hardware isolated secure element protecting a plurality of mission critical subsystems are provided. The method includes performing an actuation operation received across an unsecure path that modifies the state of a mission critical subsystem, performing a diagnostic operation received across the unsecure path that requests state information of the mission critical subsystem, storing information used to determine which of the diagnostic operation and the actuation operation received across the unsecure path are performed, and flashing an execution image of an electronic control unit when the execution image of the electronic control unit is received across the unsecure path.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for operating a relational database (DB) are provided. The method includes determining a sensitivity classification for a column of a table in the DB, performing encryption, using a data encryption key (DEK), of sensitive data when writing the sensitive data to the column determined to be sensitive, performing decryption, using the DEK, of the encrypted sensitive data when reading the sensitive data from the column determined to be sensitive, and performing writing to the column and reading from the column of unencrypted non-sensitive data when the column is determined to be non-sensitive.
