Abstract:
A method and system for enforcing access control to system resources and assets. Security attributes associated with devices that initiate transactions in the system are automatically generated and forwarded with transaction messages. The security attributes convey access privileges assigned to each initiator. One or more security enforcement mechanisms are implemented in the system to evaluate the security attributes against access policy requirements to access various system assets and resources, such as memory, registers, address ranges, etc. If the privileges identified by the security attributes indicate the access request is permitted, the transaction is allowed to proceed. The security attributes of the initiator scheme provides a modular, consistent secure access enforcement scheme across system designs.

Abstract:
A data processing system includes technology for detecting and tolerating faults. The data processing system comprises an electronic control unit (ECU) with a processing core and a fault-tolerant elliptic curve digital signature algorithm (ECDSA) engine. The fault-tolerant ECDSA engine comprises multiple verification state machines (VSMs). The data processing system also comprises nonvolatile storage in communication with the processing core and ECU software in the nonvolatile storage. The ECU software, when executed, enables the data processing system to operate as a node in a distributed data processing system, including receiving digitally signed messages from other nodes in the distributed data processing system. The ECU further comprises a known-answer built-in self-test unit (KA-BISTU). Also, the ECU software comprises fault-tolerant ECDSA engine (FTEE) management software which, when executed by the processing core, utilizes the KA-BISTU to periodically test the fault-tolerant ECDSA engine for faults. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract:
Logic may implement protocols and procedures for vehicle-to-vehicle communications for platooning. Logic may implement a communications topology to distinguish time-critical communications from non-time-critical communications. Logic may sign time-critical communications with a message authentication code (MAC) algorithm with a hash function such as Keccak MAC or a Cipher-based MAC. Logic may generate a MAC based on pairwise, symmetric keys to sign the time-critical communications. Logic may sign non-time-critical communications with a digital signature. Logic may encrypt non-time-critical communications. Logic may append a certificate to non-time-critical communications. Logic may append a header to messages to create data packets and may include a packet type to identify time-critical communications. Logic may decode and verify the time-critical messages with a pairwise symmetric key. And logic may prioritize time-critical communications to meet a specified latency.
