From what they describe, it sounds like the locking systems use a system that works like a VPN key (this was actually surprising to me). Those seem pretty tough

From what they describe, it sounds like the locking systems use a system that works like a VPN key (this was actually surprising to me). Those seem pretty tough to crack, so why would this be any different?
- PeterisP 13y agoEven if you use practically unbreakable encryption keys, there are a million things that you can fail in the whole cryptosystem and any one of them will make you vulnerable. How are keys generated? What is the source of randomness? How are keys reset if needed? What are the manufacturer/service/guvmint backdoors in the keys? etc.
- Fuxy 13y agoI think you're on to something with the backdoor. Backdoors have to be extra secure because if you hack that you have access to all of them. Hell they shouldn't even exist it's like asking to be exploited.
