  • Publication number: 20190222423
    Abstract: An in-vehicle computer generates a message authentication code about its own log using its own signature key and thereby transmits a log annotated with its message authentication code to a vehicle information collection device. The vehicle information collection device generates the signature key of the in-vehicle computer, verifies the message authentication code, which is included in the log annotated with its message authentication code received from the in-vehicle computer, using generated signature key, and thereby stores the log relating to the successfully verified message authentication code on storage media.

  • Publication number: 20190199524
    Abstract: Provided are a key generation device and an in-vehicle computer which is installed in a vehicle. The key generation device includes a vehicle interface, a key generation unit that generates first and second keys, an cryptographic processing unit that encrypts the first key with an initial key to generate first encrypted data and encrypts the second key with the first key to generate second encrypted data, an expected value calculation unit that calculates an expected value of stored data using the second key, and a verification unit that verifies a received measured value on the basis of the expected value, and the key generation device transmits the first and second encrypted data to the vehicle. The in-vehicle computer includes an interface unit, an cryptographic processing unit that decrypts the received first encrypted data, and decrypts the received second encrypted data, and a measured value calculation unit.

  • Publication number: 20190028267
    Abstract: In a secure hardware extension (SHE)-B, an initial key is set to a KEY_N key usable in a verification process and a generation process for a message authentication code. In an SHE-A, a master key is set to a KEY_N key usable in the verification process and the generation process for the message authentication code, the master key being used together with an identifier of an authenticated electronic control unit (ECU) for generating the message authentication code to be used as the initial key. A central processing unit (CPU) causes the message authentication code for the identifier of the authenticated ECU to be generated using the master key through the SHE-A and executes a process of authenticating validity of the authenticated ECU by using the generated message authentication code.

  • Publication number: 20190007217
    Abstract: An onboard computer system includes a first onboard computer configured to store a first public key certificate of a data delivering apparatus, a second onboard computer, and a secure element configured to store a second public key certificate relative to a second secret key used to generate the first public key certificate. The secure element verifies the first public key certificate by use of the second public key certificate. The first onboard computer includes an encryption processor configured to verify a first electronic signature attached to data delivered from the data delivering apparatus by use of the first public key certificate which is successfully verified by the secure element. The data attached with the first electronic signature, which is successfully verified by the encryption processor, is applied to the first onboard computer or the second onboard computer.

  • Publication number: 20170195878
    Abstract: In a communication network system connected between a transmission node and a reception node, both the transmission node and the reception node store the same secret information with their secret information storage units. The transmission node includes a counter configured to increase its transmission count value by 1 for transmitting each message, wherein a MAC generator generates MAC based on secret information, transmission data, and its transmission count value, thus transmitting a message including transmission data and MAC. The reception node includes a counter configured to increase a reception count value by 1 for receiving each message, wherein a MAC checking part generates MAC based on secret information, reception data, and its reception count value, obtained from the received message, thus checking whether the generated MAC matches the MAC obtained from the received message.
