ScapyCon 25 - A Journey into Automotive IDS with Scapy and Deep Learning - Natasha Alkhatib
Published at : 23 Dec 2025
This talk by Natasha Alkhatib from symbio explores how Scapy was extended to generate a custom SOME/IP dataset – filling a critical gap in automotive Ethernet research. By simulating realistic in-vehicle communication, including spoofing and flooding attacks, the project enabled the training of deep learning models for intrusion detection. Attendees will learn how this reproducible approach supports the development and evaluation of IDS solutions tailored to modern vehicle networks, showcasing Scapy’s versatility and the promise of AI in automotive cybersecurity.
