Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to a secure vehicle communication interface device that authorizes communication to one or more systems of a vehicle through a diagnostic, or other, communication port. A service device used to access the secure communication channel may be configured as a small apparatus that is connected to a port to authenticate communications across the port. Without the device, the port would remain locked and prevent access to any systems or subsystems of the vehicle.
