CANGuard: An Enhanced Approach to the Detection of Anomalies in CAN-Enabled Vehicles by Damilola Oladimeji, Razaq Jinad, Amar Rasheed, Mohamed Baza

“…In this paper, we propose CANGuard, an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) designed to detect attacks on the CAN network and identify the originating node in real time. Using a simulated CAN-enabled system with four nodes representing diverse vehicle components, we generated a dataset featuring Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks by exploiting the arbitration feature of the CAN bus, which prioritizes high-criticality messages (e.g., engine control) over lower-criticality ones (e.g., infotainment). …”
