Tectia vs. Karamba SafeCAN

We specialize in cybersecurity, dedicated to safeguarding vital information throughout its lifecycle for leading organizations around the world. Our self-service tool, SSHerlock, allows users to assess their SSH key inventory and understand the associated risks while ensuring post-quantum resilience, all at no charge. Beyond this, we provide solutions like passwordless authentication, operational technology (OT) security, and various defensive cybersecurity services. As we look to the future, what major trends are expected to shape the landscape of cybersecurity in the next year? PrivX is perfectly designed for the secure oversight and management of superuser and power user access within hybrid cloud settings, effectively eliminating the use of harmful privileged passwords in critical infrastructures. UKM Zero Trust automates and streamlines the lifecycle management of millions of encryption keys, enhancing risk mitigation and facilitating successful audits, all while promoting keyless access. Furthermore, our innovative software solution, NQX, offers unmatched performance and security, raising the bar for cybersecurity products. As technology advances, staying abreast of emerging trends will be essential for fortifying security frameworks and ensuring resilience against evolving threats. It is imperative for organizations to proactively adapt their strategies in response to these anticipated changes.

SafeCAN is a patented, exceptionally lightweight network security solution that authentically verifies and encrypts communications between electronic control units (ECUs) without imposing any additional network burden. It guarantees the integrity of both the sender and the transmitted data for each message, effectively safeguarding against unauthorized ECUs and physical tampering that could jeopardize the system's safety. In addition, SafeCAN reinforces in-vehicle communications, protecting them from potential over-the-air (OTA) malware threats. The innovative design of SafeCAN facilitates the exchange of encryption keys during the manufacturing phase, thereby removing the need for key exchanges while the vehicle is in operation, a frequent challenge faced by other systems. In contrast to competing technologies that generate extra network traffic through additional validation messages, SafeCAN ingeniously incorporates validation data within the redundant bits of each message, thus eliminating the need for supplementary payloads. Moreover, its backward compatibility means that there are no necessary changes to the ECU application, network protocols, or chipset, ensuring a seamless and uncomplicated implementation process. With its hardware-agnostic design, SafeCAN can be integrated without modifying the existing message format, while importantly maintaining low strain on already busy vehicle networks—delivering robust security without sacrificing performance. This strategic approach makes SafeCAN an exemplary solution for bolstering vehicle security while preserving operational efficiency, setting a new standard in automotive cybersecurity.
