SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETECTION AND PREVENTION OF ATTACKS ON IN-VEHICLE NETWORKS

Systems and methods for detection of attacks on a communication authentication layer of an in-vehicle network, including determining, by at least one network node, at least one attack attempt on the communication authentication layer of the in-vehicle network, wherein the determination is carried out by identifying anomalies in at least one of messages, data and metadata directed to the communication authentication layer, and selecting, by the at least one network node, a response corresponding to the determined attack attempt from at least one of modification of parameter values corresponding to a security protocol, a failsafe response, and rejection of messages identified as anomalies.
