SA8710A Automotive Cybersecurity Penetration Test Solution

Introduction 

The fully autonomous vehicle is the dream for most of the automakers and their customers around the world. To make this happen, the car needs to be connected to the outside world. These connections, however, open the car to outside interference. Keysight can help you find vulnerabilities before anyone else does.

How to Configure Your System 

In this guide, we will explain how to configure the SA8710A system to fit your needs. The Keysight SA8710A Automotive Cybersecurity Pen test solution is a flexible solution which allows you to test the robustness of your systems security. Keysight offers a combination of hardware plus software, which when used in tandem, are designed to test the resiliency of your ECUs, systems, or full developed cars. The hardware provides the gateways to your devices via cellular, WLAN, Bluetooth, CAN and more . This hardware is complemented by Keysight PathWave-based software options which control your connectivity gateways, and the Debian Linux-based PC which contains many of the penetration toolsets used in this solution.

Keysight has made it as easy as possible to configure your SA8710A solution. All the exploitation software and automated attacks are already built into the base software, so you need to choose how you want to connect to your device(s) under test and the correct control software. Given the modular nature of the solution, it is also possible to retrofit hardware and software connectivity options after the initial purchase to meet your testing requirements as they arise. Let’s start with the hardware configuration.

Benefit from Flexibility 

The key feature of the Keysight SA8710A is the flexibility the system allows:

• Buy what you need, when you need it.

-        If you are only interested in a cellular connection at the time of purchase, then only buy the hardware and software for cellular.

-        All the connectivity hardware and software can be added later.

• Keysight is continually working to add new connectivity options both for existing connection options and for new technologies as they arise.

• The Keysight subscription model allows you to spread the cost of development.

• With an active subscription, the Keysight IoT Security Assessment will receive constant updates to ensure you are able to stay a step ahead of emerging threats.

• Keysight will also strive to be a part of any emerging automotive cybersecurity standards organizations and bodies to ensure all tests made with our solution are traceable and conform to the highest standards.
