When it comes to cyber security, there is no silver bullet that can effectively protect cars against dynamic, sophisticated cyber attacks. Our customers require multi-layered protection to prepare them for virtually any scenario."
Argus Multi-Layered, End-to-End Protection includes the following suites:
Argus Connectivity Protection
Defends the infotainment or telematics units by preventing malware installation, detecting operating system (OS) anomalies, isolating suspicious applications, and stopping attacks from spreading to the in-vehicle network. In addition, this suite secures the two-way communication channel with the outside world. Argus Connectivity Protection operates cross-platform (Linux/QNX/Android & more) to protect the car's most vulnerable attack surfaces.
Argus In-Vehicle Network Protection
Provides in-vehicle network-wide security by detecting attacks, suspicious activity, and changes in standard in-vehicle network behavior. Deployed centrally, Argus In-Vehicle Network Protection examines all network communication and stops attacks from advancing in the network. Supporting a wide array of network protocols-CAN and CAN-FD, FlexRay, Ethernet (with SOME/IP, DoIP, etc.) and more-this suite is positioned to defend current and future vehicle architectures.
Argus ECU Protection
Reinforces select ECUs such as brakes, ADAS, or any other units deemed critical, from attacks originating inside and outside the ECU. Located on the ECU, this suite detects and prevents incoming attacks as well as neutralizes malware resulting from supply chain attacks or other attack vectors. Non-intrusive and with a small footprint, this suite supports virtually any ECU.
Argus Lifespan Protection
Future-proofs the fleet with an additional layer of protection. Collects and analyzes data from Argus in-vehicle solutions and other sources. Operating from the cloud or integrated into a security operations center (SOC), this suite provides OEMs and fleet managers with situational awareness of fleet cyber health on an intuitive dashboard. Argus Lifespan Protection also generates insights on new attacks and trends from big data analytics of OEM and fleet data, and provides the tools to take preemptive action.
Argus Aftermarket Protection
Delivers solutions for telematics technology providers, connectivity service providers, fleet managers, insurance companies and dongle manufacturers which protect cars from attacks exploiting their technologies and services. Argus Aftermarket Protection provides in-vehicle network protection and dongle protection to retrofit cars and commercial vehicles on the road.
