TeskaLabs delivers cybersecurity for C-Roads pilot in Greece

We are proud to announce that, TeskaLabs recently launched a cybersecurity solution – known as PKI – as a service for C-Roads pilot in Greece. This service is operated from a data centre in Prague and includes Root Certificate Authority, Enrolment Authority and Authorization Authority. These are mandatory central security components for every cooperative intelligent transport system (C-ITS).

The C-ROADS is a joint initiative of the European Member States and road operators. It is a technological platform that allows road vehicles to communicate with other vehicles, traffic signals, and roadside infrastructure, as well as with other road users. The systems are also known as vehicle-to-vehicle communications (V2V), car-to-car communications (C2C), or vehicle-to-infrastructure communications (V2X). These systems have a strong potential to improve road safety and the efficiency of road traffic. The C-ROADS platform is an implementation of the worldwide standard called Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITS).

In 2018 TeskaLabs won the public tender for the delivery of the cybersecurity component for the C-Roads Czech Republic through its technology SeaCat. As a result of that, SeaCat PKI has been deployed as a central public key infrastructure in the Czech Republic.

TeskaLabs SeaCat PKI is compliant with ETSI TS 103 097 v1.3.1, ETSI TS 102 941 v1.3.1, IEEE 1609.2-2016, EU C-ITS Certificate Policy, EU C-ITS Security Policy—simply the whole standardization and legislative framework for C-ITS within European Union. SeaCat PKI has been certified for participation in the seventh ETSI ITS CMS Plugtest, 4-8 November 2019, and the first ETSI C-V2X Plugtest, 2-6 December 2019, and also and Cellular Venue-to-Anything Communication (C-V2X) PlugTest, 2-6 December 2019 in Malaga, Spain. SeaCat PKI now represents a modern, flexible, easy-to-deploy and easy-to-use C-ITS PKI for any C-ITS and C-V2X deployment of any scale.
