C2A and NXP unveil cybersecurity solution for C/AVs

C2A Security has launched a cybersecurity solution for connected and autonomous vehicles (C/AVs) that uses NXP Semiconductors’ CAN (Controller Area Network) transceivers. C2A says the transceivers detect and prevent malicious activity on the vehicle’s CAN bus. The solution also includes the C2A Stamper firewall and the SecMon intrusion detection software to detect potentially malicious activity. It also uses an in-vehicle System on Chip to enable an appropriate response, the company adds. Nathanie
