Publication number: 20250148082Abstract: An information processing device includes: a plurality of HIDS; a plurality of individual monitors each of which monitors an associated one of the plurality of HIDS; an integrated monitor that monitors each of the plurality of individual monitors; and a root monitor that monitors the integrated monitor. When the integrated monitor is compromised, the root monitor changes a monitoring target thereof from the integrated monitor to any of the plurality of individual monitors based on total monitoring information. When the integrated monitor is compromised, each of the plurality of individual monitors adds, to a monitoring target thereof, another individual monitor than the individual monitor based on the total monitoring information.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 10, 2025Publication date: May 8, 2025Applicant: Panasonic Automotive Systems Co., Ltd.Inventors: Nobutaka KAWAGUCHI, Kaoru YOKOTA, Yuishi TORISAKI, Takumaru NAGAI

Publication number: 20240256655Abstract: An information processing device includes: a log transmitter that transmits a monitoring log generated in the information processing device to an SOC (28); an HIDS monitor that verifies an integrity of the log transmitter; and a monitoring RoT that verifies an integrity of the HIDS monitor, and repeatedly outputs a heartbeat signal to the log transmitter. Each time the heartbeat signal is output from the monitoring RoT, the log transmitter transmits the heartbeat signal to the SOC. When the integrity of the log transmitter is anomalous, the HIDS monitor outputs, to the monitoring RoT, an output stop request signal for requesting the monitoring RoT to stop outputting the heartbeat signal. The monitoring RoT stops outputting the heartbeat signal based on the output stop request signal.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 8, 2024Publication date: August 1, 2024Applicant: Panasonic Automotive Systems Co., Ltd.Inventors: Kaoru YOKOTA, Yuishi TORISAKI, Shoichiro SEKIYA, Takumaru NAGAI
