WHY THIS VIDEO COURSE IS IMPORTANT
Learn about the practical use of CAN and UDS tools for in-vehicle communication
The Controller Area Network (CAN), in conjunction with Unified Diagnostic Services (UDS), offers a wide range of possibilities for communicating and transmitting data and information across the vehicle.
With the right tools, analysis and data transfer can be controlled in a feature-rich way, ultimately taking development processes, testing and security to a higher level.
In this video course you will learn:
This course will provide you with the practical skills to functionally and confidently master CAN and UDS, perform ECU security tests more efficiently, improve vehicle communication diagnostics and ultimately perform successful vehicle penetration tests.
Please note: It is recommended that you are familiar with Linux system and Python programming.

A look at CAN & UDS tooling video course content
Introduction to specialised tools for CAN and UDS communication
Get to know the main tools, including can-utils, python-can, SavvyCAN and Scapy. Learn how to use them for analysis and debugging.
ISOTP Implementation for UDS with Python
Deepen your knowledge of UDS message communication using the can-isotp library. You will implement ISOTP communication between a tester and an ECU.
Practical use of can-utils
This section provides step-by-step instructions for using can-utils on Linux systems to send, receive and monitor CAN messages using can-utils. Some technical background on CAN signaling is also provided.
CAN Message Analysis and Troubleshooting
Analyse CAN traffic, identify communication problems and understand the meaning of error codes and message priorities.
Automated communication using python-can
Learn how to use the python-can library to create, send and monitor CAN messages. Get practical examples of how to automate a CAN environment with Python.
Hands-on exercises and workflows
Work through realistic use cases to monitor and send messages and isolate error sources.
For those responsible for testing and diagnosing automotive ECUs
This course is aimed at test and diagnostic engineers who regularly work with vehicle communication and control units (ECUs). You will learn how to use tools such as can-utils, python-can and ISOTP to analyse, debug and automate CAN and UDS messages. Typical challenges such as debugging CAN communication problems or running CAN and UDS tool applications are presented in clear step-by-step demonstrations.
