Abstract
A system for authenticating communications from a vehicle to a remote assistance unit includes a connectivity module (CM) installed in the vehicle. A security device is adapted to transmit messages when the security device is within a predefined proximity of the CM. A security cloud unit is configured to validate the security device based in part on a first pair of complementary keys, including a first factory key stored by the security device and a second factory key stored by the security cloud unit. The first pair of complementary keys is configured for asymmetric encryption such that the first factory key is solely decryptable with the second factory key. The remote assistance unit is configured to authenticate an integrity of the CM based in part on a second pair of complementary keys which are dynamically generated by the security cloud unit.
