This document contains a description of the motion sensor, of the threats it must be able to counteract and of the security objectives it must achieve. It specifies the required security enforcing functions. It states the claimed minimum strength of security mechanisms and the required level of assurance for the development and the evaluation.
Requirements referred to in the document, are those of the body of Annex I B. For clarity of reading, duplication sometimes arises between Annex I B body requirements and security target requirements. In case of ambiguity between a security target requirement and the Annex I B body requirement referred by this security target requirement, the Annex I B body requirement shall prevail.
Annex I B body requirements not referred by security targets are not the subject of security enforcing functions.
Unique labels have been assigned to threats, objectives, procedural means and SEF specifications for the purpose of traceability to development and evaluation documentation.

The motion sensor is intended to be installed in road transport vehicles. Its purpose is to provide a VU with secured motion data representative of vehicle's speed and distance travelled.
The motion sensor is mechanically interfaced to a moving part of the vehicle, which movement can be representative of vehicle's speed or distance travelled. It may be located in the vehicle's gear box or in any other part of the vehicle.
In its operational mode, the motion sensor is connected to a VU.
It may also be connected to specific equipment for management purposes (TBD by manufacturer).
The typical motion sensor is described in the following figure:
The typical life cycle of the motion sensor is described in the following figure:
This paragraph describes the threats the motion sensor may face.
Users could try to access functions not allowed to them.
Faults in hardware, software, communication procedures could place the motion sensor in unforeseen conditions compromising its security
The use of non invalidated test modes or of existing back doors could compromise the motion sensor security
Users could try to gain illicit knowledge of design either from manufacturer's material (through theft, bribery, …) or from reverse engineering.
Users could compromise the motion sensor security through environmental attacks (thermal, electromagnetic, optical, chemical, mechanical, …)
Users could try to modify motion sensor hardware
Users could try to manipulate the motion sensor input (e.g. unscrewing from gearbox, …)
Users could try to modify the vehicle's motion data (addition, modification, deletion, replay of signal)
Users could try to defeat the motion sensor security objectives by modifying (cutting, reducing, increasing) its power supply
Users could try to gain illicit knowledge of security data during security data generation or transport or storage in the equipment
Users could try to modify motion sensor software
Users could try to modify stored data (security or user data).
The main security objective of the digital tachograph system is the following:
The data to be checked by control authorities must be available and reflect fully and accurately the activities of controlled drivers and vehicles in terms of driving, work, availability and rest periods and in terms of vehicle speed
Therefore the security objective of the motion sensor, contributing to the global security objective, is:
The data transmitted by the motion sensor must be available to the VU so as to allow the VU to determine fully and accurately the movement of the vehicle in terms of speed and distance travelled.
The specific IT security objectives of the motion sensor contributing to its main security objective, are the following:
The motion sensor must control connected entities' access to functions and data

The motion sensor must provide a reliable service
The motion sensor must secure data exchanges with the VU.
