Abstract

An onboard communication network of a vehicle is monitored to detect a plurality of available messages that include respective cipher-based message authentication codes (CMAC) and that were identified as eligible messages based on having an information entropy greater than a specified threshold. A first message is selected from the plurality of available messages. The CMAC of the selected message is input into a random number generator that outputs a random number seeded by the CMAC of the selected message. Then the random number is provided.
