Information Security in Unmanned Autonomous Systems

Common challenges facing unmanned autonomous systems:

Confidentiality: How to secure data communicated between operator and vehicle?
Authentication: How to rest assured that communication originates from the vehicle and not an imposter?
Integrity: How to ensure that communication to and from the vehicle is unaltered?
Physical control: How to protect the on-board information from falling into enemy hands?

A possible solution through research collaboration

Thales Norway has through a research project in collaboration with FFI developed an innovative prototype of an information system intended for use in UASs, without requiring the protected marking of CCI, with accompanying safeguarding.
