Webinar: The need for standardization of automotive Ethernet firewalls

With the move towards Ethernet-oriented zonal E/E-architectures, the security requirements are becoming more widely distributed in the vehicle rather than based on a central gateway. This increased complexity renders implementing a defense-in-depth approach very challenging, especially considering the complex Ethernet packet routing requirements.

One significant pain point is the missing common language when configuring Firewalls/Routing behavior due to the different views of the stakeholders (system versus ECU). However, it's possible to address this challenge by specifying a standardized configuration language that allows the use of the well-established AUTOSAR ecosystem to configure and exchange Firewall filter rules.

In this free, 60-minute webinar, Dr Michael Peter Schneider and Dr Siddharth Shukla discuss the standardization of Ethernet firewalls within the AUTOSAR consortium.
