Honda invests in car key security research with SnT | #University #Luxembourg #Europe #IoT | Luxembourg (Europe) | Scoop.it

New key systems allows car owners to enter and start their vehicle without ever touching a key. But the technology is not entirely safe. That is why two ICT experts from the Interdisciplinary Centre for Security, Reliability and Trust (SnT) at the University of Luxembourg partnered up with Honda R&D Europe to address security vulnerabilities.

Prof. Thomas Engel and Dr Florian Adamsky signed a 30.000 euro grant agreement with the automotive giant in the Spring of 2017 to collaborate on secure key systems.

Security risks of remote unlocking

Much like contactless payments, the new key technology lets individuals unlock their cars just by getting close to it. Conversely, walking away from a vehicle locks it. The only security measure is thus the limited range of key systems that is about 10 meters.

Car thieves can buy off-the-shelf products from the black market to amplify the key signal. This enables them to unlock and start the car and drive away while its owner is just a few meters away. It is such a clean theft that no traces are effectively left behind, making a claim with insurance difficult to nearly impossible.

Unknown to most car owners, passive key entry systems carry this new kind of vulnerability that causes major headaches to insurance companies and authorities. The so-called relay attacks have been around since 2011, but the problem has been growing exponentially and gaining increased attention. Several automobile clubs have begun alerting the population (in German), such as the German automobile club (ADAC).

#Pingvalue: Luxembourg Start-Up to Launch Social Marketing Platform Following €1.2M Funding | #SmartCities

#Pingvalue: Luxembourg Start-Up to Launch Social Marketing Platform Following €1.2M Funding | #SmartCities | Luxembourg (Europe) | Scoop.it
From www.chronicle.lu - May 19, 2016 11:09 AM

Luxembourg start-up Pingvalue announced on Thursday that it has received financial capital of €1.2 million from a Dutch-based private investment fund to support the growth of its community-based social marketing platform.

The funding, provided by InvestInFuture, will be dedicated to recruitment, software development and marketing of Pingvalue, which is headquartered in Luxembourg. These financial resources will faciliate sequential product launches in citires throughout the Grand Duchy, as well as the wider Benelux region and Europe.

Currently, Pingvalue is presenting its single-platform solution for developing and supporting "smart cities" to relevant candidates, such as Esch-sur-Alzette and Luxembourg in the Grand Duchy; Heerlen in the Netherlands; Ghent in Belgium and Aachen in Germany, with a view to contributing to a sustainable future economy.

"We invested in Pingvalue because of the innovative character of the company and we are convinced that it will have a major impact on our daily life," commented Edgard Creemers, General Manager, InvestInFuture.

"With this contribution from InvestInFuture, along with enthusiastic support from our international and local partners, we are well prepared to launch the Pingvalue platform in Luxembourg this summer," said Luciano Scatorchia, Pingvalue CEO and Founder. "We appreciate this show of confidence and will continue to realise our short- and long-term strategic goals."

Pingvalue's free application enables users to discover nearby events, sights or products vetted or recommended by locals and tailored to their unique profiles, tastes and locations. Businesses and organisations, through free or paid memberships, gain access to engagement methods and real-time data.
