  • Patent number: 11943233
    Abstract: An electronic control unit is connected to a network in an in-vehicle network system. The electronic control unit includes a first control circuit and a second control circuit. The first control circuit is connected to the network via the second control circuit. The second control circuit performs a first determination process on a frame to determine conformity of the frame with a first rule. Upon determining that the frame conforms to the first rule, the second control circuit transmits the frame to the first control circuit. The first control circuit performs a second determination process on the frame to determine conformity of the frame with a second rule. The second rule is different from the first rule.

  • Patent number: 10530572
    Abstract: Provided is a key management method to secure security in an onboard network system having multiple electronic control units storing a shared key. In the key management method of the onboard network system including multiple electronic units (ECUs) that perform communication by frames via a bus, a master ECU stores a shared key to be mutually shared with one or more ECUs. Each of the ECUs acquire a session key by communication with the master ECU based on the stored shared key, and after this acquisition, executes encryption processing regarding a frame transmitted or received via the bus, using this session key. In a case where a vehicle in which the onboard network system is installed is in a particular state, the master ECU executes inspection of a security state of the shared key stored by the ECU or the like.

  • Patent number: 10165442
    Abstract: A transmission device has a detector, a generator, and a transmitter. When the detector has detected that a communication rule of a message that has been broadcasted to a network by another transmission device coincides with a communication rule of a message that is broadcasted to the network by the present transmission device, the generator generates an abnormality notification message. Then, the transmitter broadcasts an abnormality notification message to the network.
