China Automotive Cybersecurity Hardware Research Report 2022: OEMs Generally Adopt the Security Chip + HSM Strategy to Build their Cybersecurity Protection System – ResearchAndMarkets.com

/in


DUBLIN–()–The “China Automotive Cybersecurity Hardware Research Report, 2022” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

Security chip and HSM that meet the national encryption standards will build the automotive cybersecurity hardware foundation for China.

OEMs generally adopt the security chip + HSM strategy to build their cybersecurity protection system.

At the core of cybersecurity hardware are security chip and hardware security module (HSM).

Security chip, or secure element (SE), is an integrated circuit that integrates cryptographic algorithms and features physical attack prevention design.

Hardware security module (HSM) is a computer device used to protect and manage the keys and sensitive data applied by the strong authentication system, and also provide related cryptographic operations. It is the basic support for automotive security solutions.

At present, most OEMs employ the security chip + HSM strategy to build an automotive cybersecurity protection system.

For example, in its automotive cybersecurity security system, NIO uses security chips and HSM to reinforce hardware and networks; in terms of secure communication, the HSM and certificate system featuring integrity, encryption, pseudonymization and anonymity is the basis for enabling data privacy protection. In addition, bug fixes over the air (OTA) are available in the case of emergency.

GAC completes the hardware security design and creates the four systems of border protection, automotive security, PKI certification & transmission, and security services, using security chip (SE) + HSM, and secure boot, trusted zone and encryption technologies. And at the vehicle end, GAC conducts in-depth research on vehicle inside and outside multi-node security protections, such as Linux OS for T BOX 4G module, Android OS for vehicle head unit, QNX OS for gateway and MCU, and communication interaction, aiming to establish an in-depth protection system for in-vehicle security.

Homemade SE chips are mass-produced and applied in vehicles.

As the US passed CHIPS Act, the localization of semiconductors in China assumes greater urgency. More chip equipment, materials and…

V7 raises a $33m Series A to help teams build robust AI, faster –

/in


  • V7, the data engine for AI, announces a $33m Series A funding round, co-led by Radical Ventures and Temasek, joined by Air Street Capital, Amadeus Capital Partners, and Partech. 
  • V7’s client base of Fortune 500 companies, scaleups, and startups rely on V7’s platform to build sophisticated AI models that learn and improve from unstructured data including medical records, paper documents, and video.
  • This funding round includes the participation of machine learning pioneers including Francois Chollet (Keras creator), Oriol Vinyals (DeepMind), Jose Valim (Elixir creator), Ashish Vaswani (Google Brain / inventor of Transformers) and leadership figures at OpenAI, Twitter, and Amazon.

LONDON, November 28, 2022 – Today V7, the data engine to build and improve AI for computer vision, announced its $33m Series A financing co-led by AI-focused Radical Ventures and Temasek, with participation from existing investors Air Street Capital, Amadeus Capital Partners, and Partech. This represents the largest Series A funding round in its category by more than double, and will allow V7’s further expansion into the US market, growing its team in its biggest market.

Machine learning-powered computer vision models are helping tackle a range of challenges facing society today, from spotting cancers to robotic farming. But when building an ML system, 80% of a team’s time is spent managing training data. This is a slow process that helps refine and augment the “knowledge” that models have learned by having humans perform laborious, manual labeling tasks.

V7 automates the labeling process, allowing companies to solve data labeling tasks ten times more quickly. The company’s unique “programmatic labeling” workflows use AI models and minimal human steering to apply labels to data at scale. The product comes with general-purpose AI models built in, which automatically segments objects in images and video, acting as a co-pilot for human annotators. After about 100 human-guided examples, V7’s platform can start identifying objects at scale on “autopilot”, routing edge-cases it doesn’t yet understand to human reviewers. 

V7’s growth trajectory is unabated despite a macroeconomic…

Worries build about winter cyber threats in Ukraine

Ukraine and its NATO allies are girding for potential Russian government-backed hacks of electric grids and other critical infrastructure as winter closes in.

It’s a threat that government officials and cybersecurity experts alike are growing increasingly worried about as the Russian ground invasion grinds on and Russian President VLADIMIR PUTIN grows more desperate to gain and hold territory.

Russia has a long history of going after Ukraine’s critical infrastructure in the winter months (even temporarily turning off the lights for millions in Ukraine in attacks in 2015 and 2016).

There’ve already been multiple Russian cyberattacks this year, including one in April in which Russian hackers unsuccessfully launched an attack against Ukrainian energy infrastructure. As winter sets in, letting Europeans freeze could be an attractive option to put pressure on both Ukraine and the NATO alliance.

“The Europeans are hanging together for the moment, but as winter comes and peoples’ babies are cold, and the prioritization of whose babies come first, the calculus might change,” Samantha Ravich, chair of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies’ Center on Cyber and Technology Innovation, said when NatSec Daily asked about the issue at a briefing this week. “Putin absolutely understands how to divide adversaries to get more of what he wants.”

A senior Biden administration official told NatSec Daily they had similar concerns, noting that while Ukraine has done a lot of work to prepare for the cyber onslaught, Russia was likely to see the colder months as an opportunity to squeeze the Ukrainian people further through cyberattacks on key systems.

“We’re at the end of October, winter’s coming,” the official said, who was granted anonymity in order to speak freely. They pointed to the widespread missile strikes on the Ukrainian energy grid in recent weeks as…
