Digital Forensics on Automotive

In close co-operation with CanBusHack, the NFI is organising a two-day hands-on course on Digital Forensics on Automotive.

Modern vehicles are comprised of electronic controllers interconnected via several types of physical networks.  These networks shuttle thousands of parameters across in near real-time.

After having followed this course you will  (1) understand what kind of data is being sent over the CAN-bus, (2) where data may be stored and (3) how we might use standardize diagnostic protocols to retrieve stored data.

Content

  • Diagnostic Protocols

  • Security Access

  • Device Control

  • Advanced CAN Bus Techniques

  • Understanding Network Messaging: Normal Mode Messages

  • Understanding Network Messages: OSEK, VNMF, and other NM Messages

  • ECU Programming basics

  • Reverse Engineering

Objectives

In this course you will learn:

  • What vehicle controllers are
  • What vehicle controllers do
  • How vehicle controllers speak to each other
  • How to interact with the controllers
  • Methods for simulating a controller or the vehicle around a controller
  • Methods for communicating with a controller
  • Methods for querying data from the controller
  • Methods of modifying data

Target group

Digital investigators and traffic accident investigators from police or other government law enforcement organisations
