I am always impressed by the ingenuity the people have to exploit the security systems, bump keys, car proximity keys signal relay, car bluetooth opening from Tesla, "card readers" in ATMs, non secure Wifi poisoning, etc.
These were all non realistic threat.
This makes me very conservative with all these integrations and more software running and databases to just make it more convenient than a 4 digit PIN.
- Gigachad 4y ago>These were all non realistic threat. They still are. How many stories are there of people actually having their cars stolen via remote relay attacks? It gets demoed a lot in proof of concepts but I have never heard of it being actually executed. Why on earth would someone build fake fingerprints when they can just walk in to a designer handbag store with a knife, grab a few bags, and resell on facebook market place. Credit cards don't _need_ bulletproof security, they just need to be secure enough. Fraud can often be reversed and fraudsters don't get away with it many times since there is CCTV in every location that takes card. The card companies would rather opt to eat the losses on any non reversible fraud because the profits of a friction less user experience is worth more.
