Abstract:
This project involves implementing MACsec, a secure protocol that protects point-to-point ethernet links on a LAN, on the state-of-the-art automotive architecture. The automotive architecture is based on a zonal architecture, with different control modules distributed throughout the vehicle, all connected to the High Processing Control Module (HPCM). All these links will be MACsec protected, requiring the implementation of the MACsec Key Agreement protocol (MKA) for proper key management, essential for the success of the MACsec implementation. The project includes studying MKA and MACsec, developing test cases to ensure proper performance, and the final implementation in the automotive setup.
