Lynx Software Technologies is addressing the issue of securing the connected car at the AESIN conference on Automotive Embedded Systems, National Motorcycle Museum, Birmingham, 28th-29th October. They are also discussing security in both the connected car and industrial IoT at the Deterministic Ethernet Forum (Vienna, October 23rd).

Mark Pitchford, Technical Manager, EMEA, will deliver a paper at the AESIN event entitled, The use of software separation to secure the Connected Car. The paper will introduce a connected car architecture based on the principles of software separation and demonstrate that such an approach can provide the robustness and integrity required to ensure that security is never compromised, while leveraging the optimisation opportunities offered by hardware assisted virtualisation to run modern operating systems and applications within the car.

Andrew Ashby, Business Manager, Automotive & Transport, Plextek said, “Tomorrow’s connected cars will be gateway devices, where safety critical updates and vehicle maintenance systems share update mechanisms with navigation and entertainment systems. There is a pressing need for compact, effective security solutions to support the safe development of this market and it is timely that Lynx Software will present its LynxSecure Separation Kernel Hypervisor at the AESIN Conference, this year.”

Lynx will be demonstrating the capability of LynxSecure to deliver software security within the resource constraints of automotive embedded systems especially gateways. The LynxSecure hypervisor brings unique protection characteristics to intelligent devices, gateways and cloud infrastructure within a kernel 200 times smaller than the Linux kernel. It combines military-grade security with hard real-time scheduling, offering unique security differentiation against traditional virtualisation solutions.

Lynx Software Technologies will also be discussing this solution and how it can be applied to the security of the industrial IoT at the Deterministic Ethernet Forum at the Orangerie of Schoenbrunn Palace in Vienna, Austria. The event is co-hosted by AVnu, Cisco and TTTech and focuses on automotive in-vehicle networking and the Industrial Internet of Things.

Robert Day, VP of Marketing, Lynx said “It is important to show real-world examples of how our unique security technology can be applied to the connected world. These two key events will allow us to show how we can apply the same technology both to the connected car as well as to the connected Industrial IoT, and demonstrate how we can turn traditionally vulnerable points of a system into points of protection”
