Release time:
2025-03-19 17:21
Amid accelerating vehicle intelligence, the development of automotive electronic control units (ECUs) and information security compliance validation face three major challenges: frequent regulatory updates, increasingly complex threat scenarios, and time-consuming traditional penetration testing processes. To address these issues, HIRAIN, leveraging years of R&D experience and technical expertise, has officially launched the PeneTrix Penetration Testing Platform. Guided by its philosophy of "meticulous research and testing," the platform empowers ECU development teams to efficiently and accurately fulfill information security compliance requirements.
PeneTrix Penetration Testing Platform is a culmination of efforts by HIRAIN’s Central Research Institute, developed by a professional team with extensive experience in ECU security. The team possesses deep expertise in in-vehicle network protocol analysis, vulnerability scanning optimization, data security protection, and kernel security.
The platform is meticulously aligned with global regulatory frameworks, including UNECE R155, ISO 21434, and GB 44495-2024 (Technical Requirements for Automotive Information Security), ensuring compliance from the design phase. By integrating technology and regulation, HIRAIN delivers efficient and authoritative security compliance solutions.

PeneTrix Penetration Testing Platform Portal
The platform has already been successfully deployed in ECUs of leading automakers, delivering significant results. Through its automated detection workflows and precise vulnerability identification capabilities, PeneTrix enables rapid risk localization and generates penetration test reports compliant with domestic and international regulations. The platform not only shortens testing cycles but also enhances report accuracy and compliance.
Product Features
Multi-Dimensional Detection, Systematic Protection
PeneTrix offers a full-stack penetration testing solution across five dimensions—Communication Security, Data Security, Application Security, System Security, and Hardware Security—covering 35 modules and 146 test items. Acting as a "CT scanner" for vehicle security, it identifies ECU vulnerabilities with millimeter-level precision, meeting automakers’ stringent testing requirements.

Hardware Security Testing
Conducts JTAG interface physical breach testing, USB/UART port authentication checks, and evaluates hardware-layer resistance to physical intrusions.
Data Security Testing
Identifies weak password vulnerabilities, hard-coded keys, and database plaintext storage risks.
Communication Security Testing
Performs fuzz testing on Ethernet protocol stacks, evaluates Bluetooth/WiFi penetration resistance, and tests CAN bus communication security.
System Security Testing
Executes vulnerability scans, DDoS attack simulations (ICMP/SYN/UDP Flood, Smurf, malformed packets), verifies secure boot chain integrity, and reviews system configuration baselines.
Application Security Testing
Simulates multi-protocol attacks (MQTT/DHCP/DNS/SOMEIP/DoIP) and conducts OTA upgrade package encryption validation and reverse-engineering tests.

PeneTrix Penetration Testing Platform Test Modules
Automated Customization with Minimal User Involvement
PeneTrix provides an automated customization process with minimal user involvement, requiring users to complete only three key steps: submitting a request (Step 1), confirming identified risks and modification plans (Step 4), and deciding on retesting (Step 5), while all remaining tasks are handled automatically by the system or managed by professional teams. For those who prefer to conduct penetration tests independently, PeneTrix also offers a user-friendly interface and detailed guidance to ensure quick and seamless onboarding.

Product Highlights
Multi-Protocol Attack Simulation Library
Supports penetration testing across multiple vehicular communication protocols. Equipped with dozens of preconfigured attack scripts covering full attack chains including port scanning, flood attacks, firmware reverse engineering, and cryptographic key cracking.
Five-Dimensional Security Assessment Center
Establishes a "CT Scan Matrix" for vehicular security, implementing millimeter-level precision detection across five critical dimensions. Exposes multidimensional vulnerabilities spanning software, hardware, communication protocols, and operating systems, ensuring ECUs effortlessly pass compliance audits.
Zero-Code Penetration Pipeline
Users can complete penetration testing through three streamlined steps: submitting an application, reviewing the auto-generated "Vulnerability Remediation Toolkit," and analyzing the penetration report to determine whether retesting is required.
CCRC-Certified Expert Team
Holding official accreditation from the China Cybersecurity Review Technology and Certification Center (CCRC), our cybersecurity engineers with multi-year expertise deliver authoritative support including vulnerability interpretation, attack scenario reconstruction, and remediation strategy formulation. This guarantees service reliability and regulatory compliance, providing ironclad protection for information security ecosystems.

Future Vision
HIRAIN remains committed to its mission of "Innovating Value, Serving Clients" and will continue refining the PeneTrix platform while expanding its functionalities and applications. Collaborating with industry partners, HIRAIN aims to address evolving cybersecurity challenges, empowering clients to thrive in the era of intelligent and connected vehicles, and jointly shaping the future of smart mobility.
