FEV North America partners with Eclypses to enhance security for smart vehicles

FEV North America has integrated Eclypses’ MicroToken Exchange (MTE) technology into its Cyber Security Gateway in a partnership that aims to lock out cyber threats to smart vehicles and help accelerate deployment. MTE replaces a command with a MicroToken just before transmission and is said to be compatible with any communication protocol. Once the transmission packet has reached the receiver, it is then translated back into the original command by referencing a paired library. The technology will also

FEV North America has integrated Eclypses’ MicroToken Exchange (MTE) technology into its Cyber Security Gateway in a partnership that aims to lock out cyber threats to smart vehicles and help accelerate deployment.

MTE replaces a command with a MicroToken just before transmission and is said to be compatible with any communication protocol. Once the transmission packet has reached the receiver, it is then translated back into the original command by referencing a paired library.

The technology will also be demonstrated next month at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.

    5G – or not 5G? That, with apologies to Hamlet, is the question. It’s a vital one for the future of ITS development, particularly in the area of connected and autonomous vehicles (C/AVs). Just a few years ago, there was only one solution in terms of communications protocols for delivering vehicle connectivity – logically, it would have to be based on dedicated short-range communication. Now, road operators and vehicle manufacturers have choices. We examine some of these in ‘The numbers game’ (p28). Su
