Anomaly Detection for Automotive from Cyber security specialist Symantec is designed to protect against zero-day attacks and issues facing modern connected vehicles.

The system uses machine learning to provide passive in-vehicle security analytics that monitor all controller area network (CAN) bus traffic without disrupting vehicle operations, learn what normal behaviour is and flag anomalous activity that may indicate an attack. According to Symantec, the solution works with virtually any automotive make and model.

    David Crawford looks at new developments in security for wireless communications networks. Wireless communications - including mobile phone links - are well recognised as a key transport technology. They are low-cost, easily installed, well supported by the wider IT industry and offer the protocols of choice for much metropolitan area networking on which transport applications can piggyback.
