Abstract
Cyber-security has become a critical issue for real-time distributed embedded systems in domains such as automotive, avionics, and industrial automation. However, in many of such systems, the tight resource constraints and strict timing requirements make it difficult or even impossible to add security mechanisms after the initial design stages. To produce secure and safe systems with desired performance, security must be considered together with other objectives at the system level and from the beginning of the design. In this work, we apply message authentication with time-delayed release of keys to protect against attacks on a Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) based protocol, and we propose formulations and an algorithm to optimize the task allocation, priority assignment, and network scheduling during the mapping process, while meeting both security and timing requirements. Experimental results of an automotive case study show the effectiveness and efficiency of our approach.
