Abstract:
In one embodiment, a method includes: receiving, in a device, a first message to request transfer of ownership of the device from a current owner to a new owner, the device having a storage to store a first title including a device identifier for the device and an owner identifier for the current owner, the storage to further store a first root authorization key associated with the current owner; sending a second message from the device to the new owner, the second message including a hash value of the first title; and receiving a third message, in the device, the third message including a second title for the device, the second title generated by the new owner and including a new owner identifier, the second title comprising a concatenation of the first title, to enable ownership of the device to be transferred to the new owner.
Abstract:
Method, apparatus, and system for qualifying CPU transactions with security attributes. Immutable security attributes are generated for transactions initiator by a CPU or processor core that identifying the execution mode of the CPU/core being trusted or untrusted. The transactions may be targeted to an Input/Output (I/O) device or system memory via which a protected asset may be accessed. Policy enforcement logic blocks are implemented at various points in the apparatus or system that allow or deny transactions access to protected assets based on the immutable security attributes generated for the transactions. In one aspect, a multiple-level security scheme is implemented under which a mode register is updated via a first transaction to indicate the CPU/core is operating in a trusted execution mode, and security attributes are generated for a second transaction using execution mode indicia in the mode register to verify the transaction is from a trusted initiator.
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:
A first roadway system receives a communication from a second roadway system over a wireless channel, where the communication includes a description of a physical object within a driving environment. Characteristics of the physical object are determined based on sensors of the first roadway system. The communication is determined to contain an anomaly based on a comparison of the description of the physical object with the characteristics determined based on the sensors of the first roadway system. Misbehavior data is generated to describe the anomaly. A remedial action is initiated based on the anomaly.
Abstract:
Various systems and methods for bus-off attack detection are described herein. An electronic device for bus-off attack detection and prevention includes bus-off prevention circuitry coupled to a protected node on a bus, the bus-off prevention circuitry to: detect a transmitted message from the protected node to the bus; detect a bit mismatch of the transmitted message on the bus; suspend further transmissions from the protected node while the bus is analyzed; determine whether the bit mismatch represents a bus fault or an active attack against the protected node; and signal the protected node indicating whether a fault has occurred.
Abstract:
One embodiment provides an apparatus. The apparatus includes a lightweight cryptographic engine (LCE), the LCE is optimized and has an associated throughput greater than or equal to a target throughput.
Abstract:
Systems and techniques for a System-on-a-Chip (SoC) security plugin are described herein. A component message may be received at an interconnect endpoint from an SoC component. The interconnect endpoint may pass the component message to a security component via a security interlink. The security component may secure the component message, using a cryptographic engine, to create a secured message. The secured message is delivered back to the interconnect endpoint via the security interlink and transmitted across the interconnect by the interconnect endpoint.
Abstract:
A vehicle control system, including an in-vehicle bus and a plurality of electronic control units (ECUs) coupled to the in-vehicle bus, wherein at least one ECU of the plurality of ECUs is configured to: receive, at a respective at least one ECU of the plurality of ECUs, a message in a message stream on the in-vehicle bus; evaluate the message to determine at least one of a confidence value of the security classification, a significance value of the message, or a bounds check value of the message; and determine in real-time to allow or deny the message to the vehicle control system based on at least one of the significance value of the message, the bounds check value of the message, or the confidence value of the security classification of the message, to provide a sanitized message stream to the vehicle control system.
