Argus Collaborates with Microsoft to Bring End-to-End Automotive Cyber Security Cloud Solution to Vehicle Manufacturers with Microsoft Azure IoT
TEL AVIV, Israel, March 30, 2021 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/--

Argus Cyber Security Suite of Solutions integrated with Microsoft's Azure IoT 
platform to provide in-vehicle and off-board monitoring, analysis, and 
mitigation of cyber attacks from the cloud

Argus Cyber Security[https://argus-sec.com/], a global leader in automotive 
cyber security, has collaborated with Microsoft Azure IoT and joined the 
Microsoft partner network to provide vehicle manufacturers the ability to 
monitor, detect, and mitigate attacks in the cloud.

Argus cyber security suite, integrated with Azure IoT for automotive 
applications, includes Argus Fleet 
Protection[https://argus-sec.com/argus-fleet-protection/], an Automotive 
Security Operation Center (ASOC) solution, in-vehicle insights from Argus 
Connected ECU Protection[https://argus-sec.com/connected-ecu-protection/], and 
update capabilities with Argus Software Updates Over-the-Air 
[https://argus-sec.com/end-to-end-software-updates-ota/](OTA).  This end-to-end 
cloud solution is among the first to provide vehicle manufacturers full 
visibility into the cyber health of their fleet with on-board and off-board 
monitoring. 

This collaboration in automotive provides vehicle manufacturers easier access 
to security-related in-vehicle information as well as comprehensive coverage of 
security events. Argus Connected ECU Protection, deployed on connected ECUs 
such as telematics, infotainment centers, and ADAS units, detects operating 
system anomalies and suspicious activity in the vehicle according to 
customer-defined threat models. Threat models can be based on UNECE R 155 
(WP.29), the MITRE Attack framework, or any other chosen model.  Alerts from 
the vehicle are sent to Argus Fleet Protection where they are fused with 
insights from other sources in dedicated automotive threat hunting and 
investigation modules. By integrating end-to-end automotive cyber security with 
Microsoft Azure IoT, vehicle manufacturers can leverage data across a wide 
range of sources to build a more accurate, all-encompassing cyber intelligence 
picture.

Moreover, with Argus Delta OTA update technologies, vehicle manufacturers are 
able to implement security updates OTA to immediately reduce exposure to cyber 
risks, while reducing vehicle downtimes and deployment costs.  

"We are very excited about joining the world's leading companies running on 
Microsoft Azure. It represents a huge leap forward for vehicle manufacturers 
seeking to reduce their exposure to cyber risk and comply with existing 
standards and regulations, such as UNR 155 (WP.29)," said Miki Hakak, VP 
Marketing and Business Development, Argus Cyber Security. "By partnering with a 
global leader like Microsoft, we are making it easier for vehicle manufacturers 
to cost-effectively introduce cyber security into their vehicles without 
impacting production cycles or project risk."

"Cybersecurity is an essential ingredient in the move toward connected and 
autonomous vehicles," said Avijit Sinha, general manager for Azure Mobility, 
Microsoft. "Argus has comprehensive and modular solutions to ensure security 
across a vehicle's complex compute capabilities and networks, whether it's 
preventing attacks on safety-critical functions or the theft of personal data. 
Argus' collaboration with Microsoft Azure IoT provides a path for automakers 
looking to execute on their goal of secure connected and autonomous vehicles."
