A computer-implement method includes receiving one or more messages at a secure processor from a first node on a communication bus, monitoring the one or more messages from the first node, wherein the one or more messages include a request to a change a state of the one or more nodes, in response to the one or more messages including the request to the change of state, initiating a timer to initiate monitoring of the communication bus for a second sequence of messages, and in response to the second sequence of messages not being found within a database including information associated with the one or more latency values associated with the change of state, outputting a signal indicating an alert.
