VEHICLE AND CERTIFICATE VALIDATION METHOD OF VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18214803 titled 'VEHICLE AND CERTIFICATE VALIDATION METHOD OF VEHICLE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method for validating a certificate of a vehicle, involving receiving a certificate from an external device, sending the certificate to a validation server for verification without a certificate revocation list (CRL), and requesting validation of the certificate without the CRL.

  • Receiving certificate from external device and sending it to validation server:
 - The controller of the vehicle receives a certificate from an external device.
 - The controller sends the certificate to a certificate validation server for verification.
  • Validation of certificate without a certificate revocation list (CRL):
 - The certificate is sent for validation without the need for a certificate revocation list (CRL).
 - The certificate validation server verifies the validity of the certificate without the CRL.

Potential Applications: This technology could be applied in the automotive industry for secure authentication of vehicles and external devices.

Problems Solved: This technology solves the problem of efficiently validating certificates without the need for a certificate revocation list (CRL).

Benefits: The benefits of this technology include improved security and streamlined certificate validation processes for vehicles.

Potential Commercial Applications: One potential commercial application of this technology could be in the development of secure vehicle communication systems.

Possible Prior Art: One possible prior art could be existing methods for certificate validation in the automotive industry.

Unanswered Questions: 1. How does this method handle cases where wireless communication is not available between the controller and the certificate validation server? 2. Are there any potential vulnerabilities in the certificate validation process that need to be addressed?


Original Abstract Submitted

A certificate validation method of a vehicle may include: receiving, by a controller of a vehicle and from an external device, a certificate for authenticating the external device; and based on a determination that wireless communication is available between the controller and a certificate validation server: sending, by the controller and to the certificate validation server, the certificate without a certificate revocation list (CRL) for verification of validity of the certificate; and requesting the certificate validation server to validate the certificate without the CRL.
