Photo credit: Desay SV
Unique advantages
By upgrading the file segmentation processing, the high-security requirement of one-vehicle, one-key is met, and the storage pressure on the server-side is reduced at the same time.
Application
OTA has become one of the most important symbols of the current smart car, and the upgrade scope gradually covers the functions of all parts of the car. Therefore, OTA upgrades will become the norm. The industry also attaches great importance to the safety of automotive FOTA functions.
Prospect
With the advent of the era of automobile intelligence, the emphasis on OTA security will be greatly increased. At present, the conventional solutions in the industry still have defects: vehicles with the same upgrade package have the same encryption key, so as long as one vehicle is cracked, other vehicles will also be seriously threatened. Desay SV's OTA solution can solve this problem very well.
