We just describe them a bit: + +- **CAN**: Controller Area Network, developed in the early 1980s, is an + event-triggered controller network for serial communication with data rates + up to one MBit/s. **CAN** messages are classified over their respective + identifier. **CAN** controller broadcast their messages to all connected nodes + and all receiving nodes decide independently if they process the message. +- **FlewRay**: Is a deterministic and error-tolerant high-speed bus. With a data + rate up to 10 MBit/s. +- **ByteFlight**: Is used for safety-critical applications in motor vehicles + like air-bags. Byteflight runs at 10Mbps over 2 or 3 wires plastic optical + fibers. +- **Most**: Media Oriented System Transport, is used for transmitting audio, + video, voice, and control data via fiber optic cables. The speed is, for the + synchronous way, up to 24 MBit/s and asynchronous way up to 14 MBit/s. + **MOST** messages include always a clear sender and receiver address. +- **LIN**: Local Interconnect Network, is a single-wire subnet work for + low-cost, serial communication between smart sensors and actuators with + typical data rates up to 20 kBit/s. It is intended to be used from the year + 2001 on everywhere in a car, where the bandwidth and versatility of a **CAN** + network is not required. + +<!-- config --> + +Domain | Tech name | Recommendations +---------------------------------- | --------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- +Connectivity-BusAndConnector-Bus-1 | CAN | Implement hardware solution in order to prohibit sending unwanted signals. + +<!-- endconfig --> + +See [Security in Automotive Bus Systems](http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.92.728&rep=rep1&type=pdf) for more information. + +# Connectors + +For the connectors, we supposed that they were disabled by default.
