Embodiment
[0020] Embodiments include providing 102 the first key of the electronic control unit to the sensor device. Additionally, the method comprises: encrypting 104 sensor data of the sensor device using the first key to determine the encrypted data; and sending the encrypted data from the sensor device to the electronic control unit 106 . Instead of sending the sensor data as plaintext data, the sensor data is encrypted before sending in order to prevent security attacks on the communication from the sensor device to the electronic control unit or on the system using the sensor data. The sensor data to be encrypted may be any data sent from the sensor to the ECU, for example data describing a physical quantity determined by the sensor. In some embodiments, other data sent from the sensor may also be encrypted, but it may not be critical to the security of the system if this data is compromised. An example of such data is configuration data of a sensor device. In other words, in s...
