Title
Security Issues Of Multi-Core Architectures - The Automotive Case
Abstract
The ever-increasing demands for computational power as well as cost reduction and energy efficiency can only be met by a move towards multi-core architectures. Such architectures offer great benefits, particularly within the automotive domain, because the more than 80 microcontrollers in a car can be merged into a few highly-integrated multi-core systems. This will save costs and power. Unfortunately, multi-core systems pose specific security problems. The article will discuss new and extended security risks that evolve from multi-core characteristics like parallelization and resource sharing. These risks aside, multi-core architectures also offer opportunities to improve overall system security. Future research is required to endow next generation multi-core architectures with appropriate security concepts, such as secure virtualization based on Hardware Security Modules, improved attack and misbehavior detection using tailored self-monitoring, and attack-tolerance techniques.
