Revolutionizing connected vehicle security

Thales’ Embedded Secure Element (eSE) safeguards sensitive vehicle data, ensures secure communications and enables advanced applications like infotainment and telematics for connected cars.

Thales eSE is a tamper-resistant solution designed to secure sensitive automotive data and enable advanced connected car services, such as car maintenance or vehicle charging. This means that multiple car IDs must communicate securely with several external IDs. That’s where Thales eSE can help.

Key features of Thales automotive Embedded Secure Element

It provides a dedicated and isolated area for storing sensitive data, which is then protected from attacks or unauthorized access.
The primary purpose of an eSE is to ensure the confidentiality, integrity and authenticity of sensitive information related to vehicle functions. It can also manage cryptographic keys during secure communication between vehicles and external systems.

eSE is answering standardized protocols, is interoperable and upgradable.

Enables secure communication between vehicles and external systems such as manufacturers' back-end servers or electric vehicle charging infrastructures. We have a strong track record in post-quantum crypto technologies and widespread eSE references, including a Digital Key for a notable European Tier 1 entity.
