In this paper, cryptographic schemes are applied to Ethernet-based layer-2 communication to provide authenticated encryption to safety- critical automotive control data. Confidentiality, integrity and authenticity are provided by combining AES with HMAC. Experimental results using low-cost hardware show that, despite the introduced cryptographic overhead, latency requirements are comfortably met for this type of communication.
