Keysight outlines automotive cybersecurity offerings

Keysight Technologies is all set to secure connected vehicles with solutions to test and measure related technologies.

The recently-announced Automotive Cybersecurity Program validates the resiliency of connected components of a vehicle, individually or as an entirely functioning automobile. At the same time security solutions developed by Keysight company Ixia Solutions Group (ISG) enable security validations of the 4G/5G radio access network (RAN) infrastructure that connects vehicles, and the backend data centres that manage business operations.

“Early assessment, prior to production, is essential to enabling our automotive customers to deliver safe and supportable vehicles,” stated Mark Pierpoint, President of Ixia Solutions Group, a Keysight business. 

“Potential issues identified post production, with the risk of recalls, cost orders of magnitude more to repair than when found during predeployment testing, notwithstanding the possible loss of human life.

"Continued detection and mitigation of cybersecurity threats once vehicles are on the road are equally critical to keep consumers safe. Cybersecurity testing is an essential defence to ensure the design and implementation of a bulletproof security posture in connected vehicles.”

Keysight solutions to help prevent vehicles from being cyber-hijacked, include

Automotive Cybersecurity Program

Validates and exploits the potential attack surfaces existing in connected vehicles

Automotive Gateway Security Test

Validates the zoning and security posture of in-vehicle networks

Network Security Test

Validates and stresses a network infrastructure and backend data centres

Application & Threat Intelligence (ATI) Research Center

Ensures testing that includes the latest application and security strike simulations

Visibility for network security

Improves the performance of security architecture with 100% visibility of all traffic on an automotive network

“Cars today support multiple communication methods, like Bluetooth and USB while a growing number of cars use mobile communication for a variety of services available in the car,” said Tom Goetzl, Automotive & Energy Solutions business GM for Keysight.

“Keysight’s Automotive Cyber Security programme can test for vulnerabilities on all available communication ports and provides direction to our customers on how to close such vulnerabilities.”
