Penetration testing is a common technique for identifying vulnerabilities in software and hardware throughout the development lifecycle. In this context, US vehicle manufacturers conduct penetration testing to validate and verify that their vehicles and components meet automotive cyber security regulations ad standards, such ISO 21434 and UNR 155. Argus' new penetration testing lab provides the resources, knowledge and testing infrastructure required to test hardware and software components. These local capabilities will help OEMs and Tier 1s meet tight production timelines and avoid time-consuming and costly logistics. Already up and running, the new lab leverages the proven methods and processes used in Argus' existing penetration testing labs in Europe, Japan and Korea. Argus offers a comprehensive and modular automotive penetration testing service comprising several packages, including ECU-Level penetration testing, Vehicle-Level penetration testing, code review and automated fuzz testing packages. At the component level, the penetration testing service detects and reports vulnerabilities in an ECU's interfaces, communications channels, and security measures. Argus' fuzz testing tool enables automated and scalable penetration testing of ECUs and other systems, helping Argus researchers find zero-day vulnerabilities and configuration errors quickly and efficiently.
