Security concerns for all connected devices have moved to the top of the agenda for manufacturers, but in the case of automotive, where safety is paramount, and large financial liabilities exist, robust security is imperative. Arm is playing its part by driving technologies which lower the cost of implementing effective security standards.
Automotive software standards, such as AUTOSAR, have paved the way for major developments in the functional complexity of Electronic Control Units (ECUs). As a result, the industry has seen a rapid and widespread increase in the implementation of these ECUs. This deployment has facilitated the growth of functions based on vehicle-to-infrastructure and vehicle-to-vehicle communications such as e-Toll, tachographic, odometric and advanced driver assistance systems. As a result, major improvements in the efficiency and operational performance of vehicles are possible that support the creation of intelligent transportation networks.
