Systems and methods for secure over-the-air updates for cyber-physical systems

A system for providing secure remote software updates to a cyber-physical systems (CPS) device, the system comprising:

• a memory storing instructions;
• and
• a processor executing the instructions to perform a process including:
• receiving, at a first server, data used to update software of at least one CPS device;
• converting the data into a first format;
• establishing a secure connection between the first server and a second server;
• transmitting the data in the first format from the first server to the second server;
• identifying each CPS device that is authorized to receive a software update;
• encrypting a software update package to ensure that the software update is decrypted by each CPS device that is authorized to receive the software update and is not decrypted by an CPS device that is not authorized to receive the software update;
• and
• transmitting the encrypted software update package to each CPS device.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform a method for providing secure remote software updates to a cyber-physical systems (CPS) device, the method comprising:

• receiving, at a first server, data used to update software of at least one CPS device;
• converting the data into a first format;
• establishing a secure connection between the first server and a second server;
• transmitting the data in the first format from the first server to the second server;
• identifying each CPS device that is authorized to receive a software update;
• encrypting a software update package to ensure that the software update is decrypted by each CPS device that is authorized to receive the software update and is not decrypted by an CPS device that is not authorized to receive the software update;
• and
• transmitting the encrypted software update package to each CPS device.
