I can only speak for German car companies, but their tech is incredibly secure, and multiple teams work on just making sure it is close to impossible to get access to anything digitally controlled in a car.
The thing with cars is that malicious actors usually can get physical access to it, which makes it an order of magnitude more difficult to secure. This is one of the main reasons car computers often seem so clunky.
- yafbum 3y agoA lot of this tech seems to consider the legitimate owner of the car doing DIY repairs as "malicious" as well, unfortunately.
- kramerger 3y agoI see your point, but modern cars are too complicated to allow tinkering anyway. Besides, would you dare driving next to the guy that just installed random rom from xda?
- yafbum 3y agoI'm talking about simple stuff like authorizing additional keys, enabling remote lock/unlock without a stupid subscription, etc. The rom on the car is way less of a concern to me than whatever the person had to drink or their road rage fueled tailgating...
