- Solution provides automotive engineering students with advanced training to meet the cybersecurity challenges of software-defined vehicles
- Automated, open-source platform is pre-programmed, supports standard testing scenarios, and is fully customizable
With drivers expecting their automobiles to be fully integrated into their digital lifestyles, the nature of vehicles is becoming more software-centric. Known as software-defined vehicles (SDV), these autos deliver new connectivity, personalization, and automation features through highly complex software operating systems. While SDVs promise increased safety and convenience, their hyper-connected systems make them vulnerable to cybersecurity threats.
To help build student skills in vehicle-based cybersecurity, Keysight worked with SHEILD to define an affordable automotive cybersecurity platform for research and education. As an automated testing platform supporting industry standards, the SA8710A Automotive Cybersecurity Penetration Test Platform prepares students to meet future cybersecurity challenges with state-of-the-art testing tools.
Keysight's automotive cybersecurity test platform provides students with:
- Automated testing - Supports a variety of security audits to maximize efficiency, covering attack surfaces such as Bluetooth, WiFi, cellular, CAN (controller area network) and automotive Ethernet.
- Quick spin-up - Comes pre-programmed for immediate use.
- Open-source environment - Keysight's PathWave Test Automation is open-source, enabling students to add new capabilities.
- Cybersecurity assessments - Running on Linux, the Keysight IoT Security Assessments platform enables students to learn with predefined audits and add open-source and custom security audits.
SHIELD provides students with:
- Education and training - Custom training of high-quality personnel (HQP) with experiential learning opportunities as well as opportunities for workforce retraining to create an industry-ready talent pipeline in
- Knowledge transfer - A reference library of information and engagements that raises awareness for the need for mobility cybersecurity.
- Research and innovation - Institutional and industrial collaboration to create ready-made solutions that meet rapidly changing technology and threats.
Keysight leads the industry in providing innovative engineering learning solutions to the education industry, advancing teaching with hardware and software tools that transform academic teaching labs. As part of the local and global community, Keysight is committed to STEM education by supporting programs that encourage students from all backgrounds to pursue careers in science and engineering, including the
