Application context and security requirement
A leading manufacturer of electrical systems for railways wanted to protect their know-how invested in their so ware against counterfeiting, reverse engineering, and tampering. Wibu developed a technology – CodeMeter® Embedded – protecting the integrity of the machine code.
Challenge
The vendor manufactures a real-time controller for the electric power system of trains. The unit is therefore used in harsh conditions with public safety implications. Even though it employs failsafes, a power outage can cause inconvenience for passengers, and could lead to delays across the entire network, and cause other safety concerns. The challenge is not just building a robust controlling so ware for the power converter system, but also making sure it stays secure from local and remote cyber-attacks.
