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.

Who is Responsible for Securing the Connected Car?
The automotive industry recently witnessed several cases of cyber-hacking that made driving connected cars dangerous if not impossible. Companies like Jeep, Volkswagen, and Tesla all have recently dealt with cases of hackers taking over cars and stopping them while the cars were in use as well as stealing customers' Social Security numbers, financial details, and other sensitive information.

C-ITS ITS-S Security microservice
As part of TeskaLabs‘s research activities, we are working toward a more flexible, contemporaneous method to deploy the software security component (specifically C-ITS Security) into the vehicle software ecosystem (ITS-S). The current best practice in the industry is that the cybersecurity component is integrated into the vehicle application software as a library. However, this approach brings with it many limitations, such as narrow software compatibility. The deployment is highly inflexible and so it is often omitted due to its complexity.
