Proposal for a Secure Forensic Data Storage

Abstract

A forensically sound and secure data storage architecture is proposed in this paper. A design focus was on its tamper-proof and memory saving, yet cost-efficient ability to store information valuable for both post-crash and post-crime investigations in a privacy protecting manner. Current privacy regulations were extensively taken into consideration by its architecture design. The implementation requires only minor changes to the vehicle software architecture, leaving the vehicular hardware completely untouched.
