Electromagnetic Fault Injection & Automotive Systems

Explore electromagnetic fault injection (EMFI) techniques to bypass security measures in automotive Electronic Control Units (ECUs) in this Black Hat conference talk. Delve into a case study of a 2019 model year ECU, examining how EMFI can be applied without permanent modifications. Learn about the physical access requirements, open-source tools, and the specific vulnerabilities of PowerPC devices and Boot Assist Modules. Witness live demonstrations of power analysis and fault injection on ECUs, and understand the broader implications for automotive security. Evaluate the real-world threats, advanced techniques, and access valuable resources for further research in this cutting-edge field of automotive cybersecurity.
