N2  - Alcohol-based vehicle immobilizers have proven themselves in worldwide use for over 30 years. The original idea to prevent driving under the influence of alcohol by installing such a device into a vehicle is still the point of alcohol interlocks. However, the requirements for the devices have increased greatly over the last several years. Data security and privacy protection play increasingly greater roles. All recorded events, for example, giving the first breath sample to start the motor, measured alcohol concentration, starting the vehicle, and length of the drive with specification of date and time are all protected from unauthorized access. It is also impossible to alter or delete data saved to an alcohol interlock's control unit. It is only possible for authorized personnel to read the data and the analysis of the data. To date, there has not been any unified, harmonized requirement for the encryption of data. It was the job of alcohol interlock manufacturers to ensure the security and privacy of the data. With the European standard EN 50436-6 Version 2014, which defines the quality and the privacy protection requirements, approved alcohol interlocks will fulfill the increased requirements. Technical advancement and the newest encryption methods are the basis of this. Additional devices are required in drunk driving programs in an increasing number of US states and in parts of Australia. These devices require cameras and/or modules for mobile data transmission. As part of the approval, these additional devices must also be tested according to the new European standard EN 50436-1:2014 (Requirements for alcohol interlocks in use in drunk driving programmes) and EN 50436-6:2014 (Requirements for alcohol interlocks on data security). The data security and privacy protection requirements also apply to the additional devices, as they also record data that is saved to the control unit in the alcohol interlock.<p />  <p>Language: de</p>
