Argus ECU Protection Product Modules

POSIX-Based ECUs

argus-ecu-protection-diagram-01

System Limiter

Mandatory-access control that uses utilizes automotive-specific techniques to protect system data and code on the ECU.

Platform Integrity

Protects automotive environments by preventing execution and usage of unverified code and data on the ECU at boot and during runtime.

Threat Detection

Detects known and unknown cyber threats and attacks by continually monitoring the ECU and alerting of suspicious behavior.

ECU Firewall

Prevents attacks from spreading to the in-vehicle network by blocking malicious communications using Deep Packet Inspection.

Security Logger

Logs, securely stores, and protects data integrity . Sends the data in a secure manner to other entities in or outside the vehicle for future analysis.

Classic AUTOSAR and Bare-Metal ECUs
