WiSec 2011 poster: a modular design for a hardware security module in car-to-x communication

In this work the design of a security module is presented providing FPGA based hardware acceleration for Elliptic Curve Cryptography which, meets the requirements of Car-to-X Communication. The module is pluggable via USB to a Car-to-X system and therefore easily deployable within currently running or planed Field Operational Tests.
