In the field of Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITSs), the traditional approach to testing often emphasizes technological parameters, leaving the validation of message content insufficiently addressed. Since the content of these messages is crucial for the correct functioning of C-ITS, this article demonstrates the potential for automated evaluation of C-ITS message content against relevant standards. It leverages our novel tools, Karlos and C-ITS SIM, to facilitate this process. Through detailed laboratory testing and data analysis, the study showcases the effectiveness of these automated solutions in enhancing the accuracy and reliability of message content validation.

The volume of data streams in different areas of the smart city concept, e.g. robust IT connectivity or efficient urban mobility, has been ballooning in recent times, and yet, the issue of how to protect this data is remaining on the margin of attention. Several possible approaches may be taken to data protection, which arise from different perspectives. The most well-known of these is the much-mentioned General Data Protection Regulation, dealing with the protection of personal data. Data is generally stored in a space called a database, i.e., a tool for collecting and organizing data. As far as databases are concerned, there is a separate approach to their protection which may be directly associated with the design of the database and/or its contents. The purpose of this article is to provide the reader with insight into this issue with respect to specific databases within the field of autonomous mobility. In addition, this article includes a proposal as to what characteristics selected databases should have that affect their possible protection, and the conclusions to be derived from this.

This document deals with integration of a recent semiconductor components within rapidly growing automotive sector. Researchers combined advanced technologies and proven car communication concepts aiming to development of demanded functionalities and demonstrating them on two use cases. Researchers started with technology analysis, have done defined experiments on the new components and specified representative use cases. Outcomes of the research will address two main stakeholder groups - car users and vehicle infrastructure operators enabling them entirely new comfort of taking care of vehicles both on professional and user basis.

The article deals with the design of the IoT communication platform for real HVAC operation, which is designed for the design of intelligent buildings. For its own implementation, the existing RS485-based access systems infrastructure will be used, extended by wireless gateways. The data obtained is stored in a cloud environment where the datamining methods are then evaluated. The article describes the basic principle of the operation of the proposed infrastructure and demonstrates the pilot verification in a real environment.

The project deals with the implementation of new security elements to an access system designated for sites and premises that have to be protected against unauthorised entry or where access to certain parts of the site should be restricted. The electronic access system can substitute single key systems. The system offers a wide range of applications (registration and signalling of non-standard entries, forced entries, failure to close) and combination with external security systems. The access control system can be deployed separately or as a part of an attendance control system registering arrivals or adherence to prescribed working hours.

The article describes the architecture and use cases of the vehicles external control unit (BBCU - BODY & BOARD CONTROL UNIT) for the vehicle communication within global traffic systems including traffic security and safety (Car2Car, Car2Infrastructure concepts supported), IoT architectures as well as Smart Cities applications. The BBCU is an embedded system optionally supplemented with graphical user interface installed inside the vehicle and designed to fulfil three basic functions. The function of an event recorder storing data from sensors installed both inside and outside the vehicle. It monitors and records data of the trip and other significant events. The other function is the communication with peripheral systems installed inside the vehicle (IR cameras, RFID readers etc.). The third function is the analysis of data received from peripheral systems and transmission of data to the system eCall as under preparation and other transport applications. What has to be safeguarded for this purpose are free interfaces, computing capacity, safe and fast data storage.

This paper presents already built a public key infrastructure in the university environment. Infrastructure was established to enhance the security and credibility of the university systems and as a support for the development of a fully electronic flow of documents at the university. The article describes the main elements of the PKI along with the problems that had to be solved when deployed to a specific environment of the university.

In the university environment, as well as in many other institutions and industrial companies there are a large number of different assets. Significant differences from other enterprises or institutions are the large variation in purchase and huge turnover of assets. Exceptionally assets are lent or transferred between faculties, relatively frequent are exchanges and long-term loans between departments. Very common is the movement of assets within a single department. Although according to the internal regulations there is mandatory for any transfer of property to create transfer documentation. It does only in the first two cases, when transfers are outside the department or faculty. The result is long-lasting legitimate inventory at the end of the year, a large number of the missing property and often critical situations acting on interpersonal relationships. The reason is clear - it is not humanly possible for asset manager to handle from several thousand to tens of thousands of shifts, loans and transfers of assets per year.

Nowadays ICT technology is infiltrated to all areas of human existence and the number of objects, animate or inanimate, actively acting within Internet services is rapidly growing. The reasons of object monitoring are permanently changing and evolving, following the development of public and non-public sectors. For example using of various tags, stuck on goods, are used for goods identification in stores and for security reasons for many years. Further, the assets identification using passive tags turns to active identification enabling automatic inventorying and permanent assets protection at the same time. Active identification provides also the remote monitoring of objects, moreover, when object's data are safely shared on Internet environment, a number of cloud services can be enabled to allow customers remote monitoring of objects. Based on such ICT environment, the architecture called Internet of Things is ready to come to daily life. The objects considered in such systems can be home appliances, medical devices, building assets, computers, mobile devices, cars, production components, manufacturing tools, building materials and, of course, people. Especially the bindings and relations among objects, for example an identified person having an expensive identified device and passing unauthorized zone is evaluated as a risk transaction resulting to a denied access. Beside the object identification the differentiation of static and moving objects brings a new important parameter to improve the IoT concept.
