Included bus options are now indicated with a "." (DOT) followed by the name of the bus system. Examples: for the LIN option: .LIN for the MOST option: .MOST The products CANoe resp. CANalyzer always contain the CAN option; therefore ".CAN" is never listed as a bus option. All further contained options are specified as shown above. The products DENoe resp. DENalyzer aim at users that exclusively use one or some of the bus systems LIN, MOST or FlexRay; here the CAN option is not included. Examples for CANoe: • CANoe (tool for CAN users) • CANoe.LIN (tool for CAN and LIN users) • CANoe.LIN.MOST (tool for CAN, LIN and MOST users) Examples for DENoe: (DEN: Distributed Embedded Network) • DENoe.LIN (tool for LIN users) • DENoe.LIN.MOST (tool for LIN and MOST users) • DENoe.LIN.MOST.FlexRay (tool for LIN, MOST and FlexRay users) Additional Notes • Practice parts (CANoe tour / CANalyzer tour) are currently only available for CANoe resp. CANalyzer (not for the bus options LIN, MOST, FlexRay). • In the manual and online help basically the terms CANoe and CANalyzer are used. • The terms DENoe resp. DENalyzer are used in manual and online help to show differences to CANoe resp. CANalyzer. © Vector Informatik GmbH CANoe/DENoe Manual Version 4.1.1 VI Contents 1

  • Cyber Security Mechanisms for Connected Vehicles
    Infineon Security Partner Network Partner Use Case Cyber Security Mechanisms for Connected Vehicles Protecting automotive vehicle networks and business models from cyber security attacks Products AURIX™ www.infineon.com/ispn Partner Use Case Use case Application context and security requirement The rapidly growing connectivity of vehicles is opening numerous opportunities for new features and attractive business models. At the same time, the potential for cyber-attacks on vehicle networks is also growing. Such attacks threaten the functional safety of the vehicle and could cause financial damage. Challenge Vehicles consist of numerous interconnected electronic control units (ECUs) with numerous internal and external interfaces. The overall system only works if the software executed on the ECUs and the data transmitted between ECUs is protected against manipulation. Implementation The solution requires multiple layers of security mechanisms. The foundation is provided by microcontrollers which are equipped with security cores e.g. Aurix Hardware Security Module (HSM). They provide hardware acceleration for cryptographic primitives such as Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) as well as protected storage of cryptographic keys. Based on these capabilities Vector is providing software and drivers for these HSMs that enable higher level security mechanisms such as secured boot, secured communication or secured diagnostic access. User benefits: Vehicle Electrical/Electronic (EE) architectures which integrate

    Serial Bus Systems in the Automobile Part 3: Simple and cost-effective data exchange in the automobile with LIN In just a very short time the LIN bus has established itself as the technology of choice for simple and cost-effective data exchange in the automobile.
