Symantec appears to be investing more in its Internet of Things lineup, having just released the Symantec Anomaly Detection for Automotive app in an effort to detect security anomalies in connected cars.
The security company with the Anomaly Detection for Automotive application is addressed to the automotive industry. It is a suite designed to analyze security threats and neutralize them.
With this move, the company seems to believe that the Internet of things can be a major growing market. Symantec also has built-in security tools, code signing, and managed public keys to secure the Internet of Things.
The general idea behind the software είναι ότι η εταιρεία θα uses μηχανική μάθηση για να αναλύει το Controller Area Network of a car passively.
The company's Anomaly Detection for Automotive software demonstrates learning the normal behavior of the car, so it can detect an attack if it notices that something is not normal.
The software will work with most brands and models, as the company said.
Symantec's software will be integrated into cars and will probably be sold by car makers. The application will be invisible to the driver and will use minimal memory and computational power.
According to Symantec, Anomaly Detection for the automotive industry is available from now on.
