Argus Connected ECU

With decades of experience in both cyber security and the automotive industry, Argus offers innovative security methods and proven computer networking know-how with a deep understanding of automotive best practices. Built for the automotive industry, Argus Connected ECU protection prevents, detects, and mitigates attacks targeting connected ECUs. Six easy to deploy independent modules work individually, or together, to protect the car’s most vulnerable attack surfaces, such as in-vehicle infotainment units (ivis), telematics units (tcus), and adas units.

KEY BENEFITS

AUTONOMOUS. Prevents attacks in real-time without connectivity to the outside world or human intervention MULTI-LAYERED. Provides multiple independent protection layers, to defend against all types of attacks. AUTOMOTIVE-GRADE. Built for the automotive industry and addresses unique automotive security challenges. CONTROL FLOW INTEGRITY (CFI). Prevents exploitation of vulnerabilities, by ensuring that the ECU program does not deviate from its expected execution flow.    SYSTEM LIMITER. Prevents unauthorized commands and resource access with an automotive-grade mandatory access control. PLATFORM INTEGRITY. Prevents and blocks unauthorized software from running on the ECU by validating the software at boot and during runtime. SECURITY LOGGER.
