Abstract

The present invention provides a relay device including: a receiving unit that receives instructions; a fuzzing detection unit that detects an illegitimate instruction among the instructions received by the receiving unit; a disguised operation decision unit that decides a disguised operation corresponding to the illegitimate instruction detected by the fuzzing detection unit; and an instruction generation unit that generates an instruction corresponding to the disguised operation decided by the disguised operation decision unit.

Claims (9)

1. A relay device comprising:

processing circuitry for use in controlling devices in a vehicle and configured to:

receive instructions;

detect an illegitimate instruction among the instructions;

store at least one illegitimate instruction as a group of instructions and output the group of instructions when the group of instructions meets a specific condition;

generate a hash value for the group of instructions that are output;

decide on a decoy operation where the processing circuitry operates in a different way from ordinary operations while maintaining functional operations of the devices in the vehicle, the decoy operation to be executed corresponding to the hash value, the decoy operation being different from an operation corresponding to the illegitimate instruction; and

generate an instruction corresponding to the decoy operation.

2. The relay device according to claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry acquires an individual identifier, and generates the code, using the group of instructions and the individual identifier.
