Your CAR could be at risk of cyberattacks, as scientists reveal 'holes' in systems
Smart cars may make our lives easier on the road, but they are also easily hacked by cyber criminals. Scientists have found'holes' in these systems that lets digital deviants access your data or worse, take over the vehicle. The first hole is when users plug their smartphone into their smart car, which is an open door for hackers to breach vehicle systems. However, another vulnerability lets users access features in order to take over the system and could ultimately crash the car. Experts are now calling on carmakers to release constant updates for the software in order to put an end to data breaches and save lives.
