US: NTCIP Traffic Signal to CVRSE - SNMPv3/TLS

Description:

This solution is used within Canada and the U.S.. It combines standards associated with US: NTCIP Traffic Signal to CVRSE with those for I-F: SNMPv3/TLS. The US: NTCIP Traffic Signal to CVRSE standards include upper-layer standards required to implement field-to-field communications between traffic signals and connected vehicle roadside equipment. The I-F: SNMPv3/TLS standards include lower-layer standards that support secure center-to-field and field-to-field communications using simple network management protocol (SNMPv3); implementations are strongly encouraged to use the TLS for SNMP security option for this solution to ensure adequate security.

Solution Issues Severity: 23

The severity issue score calculation only includes issues associated with standards that are included by default.

Solution Issues:

DefaultSeverityNameTypeDescription
TrueLowUse TLS for SNMP OptionSecurity GapThe standard allows for multiple security mechanisms. The only defined mechanism that meets the requirements for C-ITS is the one based on TLS.
TrueMediumNot a standardStandardization GapThe document may be publicly available but it is not currently available as a formal standard and details may change prior to adoption as a standard.
TrueMediumOut of date (medium)Standardization GapThe standard includes normative references to other standards that have been subject to significant changes that can impact interoperability or security of systems and the industry has not specified if and how these updates should be implemented for deployments of this standard.
TrueHighDraft not available (Critical)Standardization GapThe standards development organization has established a work item for the subject standard but a draft is not available for this critical feature to enable the interface. The draft may be missing due to the work item being new or simply a lack of activity on the work item.
